At Tenaadam Kitfo, we invite you to embark on a culinary journey that celebrates one of Ethiopia’s most cherished dishes: kitfo. Originating from the Gurage region, kitfo is a testament to Ethiopia’s rich cultural tapestry and its profound appreciation for flavorful, artisanal cuisine.
What is Kitfo?
Kitfo is a traditional Ethiopian dish made from finely minced raw beef, marinated with a blend of mitmita (a spicy chili powder) and niter kibbeh (a clarified butter infused with herbs and spices). For those who prefer, it can be served lightly cooked, known as kitfo leb leb. Traditionally, kitfo is accompanied by ayibe (a mild, crumbly cheese) and gomen (steamed and chopped collard greens), offering a harmonious balance to the dish’s rich flavors.
