Zigni is a bold, spicy beef stew that hails from Eritrea 🇪🇷 — rich in tomato, infused with berbere spice, and slow-cooked until the meat is melt-in-your-mouth tender. It’s traditionally served with injera, the spongy sour flatbread, but rice or crusty bread works beautifully too.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs stew beef (cubed)
- ¾ cup vegetable oil
- 1½ tbsp cumin
- 2 tsp turmeric
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- 1 small red onion, finely diced
