I haven't made this yet, but I found it and didn't want to forget it. I will try it this weekend and report back!
Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 3 medium red onions
- 1/2 cup spiced butter (also know as tesmi or kbe)
- 1/4 cup chili paste (also know as d'lk, a hot chili mixed with water, oil and spices)
- 1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
- 2 lbs beef (preferably a beef brisket or any cut of your favorite beef)
- water
Method
Directions 1Chop onions into small fine pieces. 2Heat a shallow deep pan, about 3 to 4 inches deep. 3Add half of the spiced butter. 4Once butter is melted add the chopped onions and cook it until the onion is caramelized. 5Be sure not to burn the onions, keep stirring! 6Add the chili paste to the cooked onions. 7Mix it well by adding a drop of water at a time as needed. 8Cook for about 15 minutes by adding a drop of water as you stir to stop it from drying. 9Add tomatoes and cook for about 30 minutes more stirring it often and adding a drop of water as needed to prevent it from drying out. 10Cut beef into small bite sizes, about ½ inch cubes. 11Add beef to the cooking paste and cook covered for about 20 minutes or until it is cooked fully. 12Add the remainder of the spiced butter and mix well. 13Let cook of about 5 more minutes. 14Depending on your personal desire, you may add more water to bring it to the consistency you like.

Favorite Piece of Cooking Equipment: I love things that are easy, so the crockpot or electric frying pan
Favorite Recipes: I like so many things! I love my Stepmom's stuffing recipe and I love Peanut Butter Blossoms. Both are simple and delicious.
What else? I don't consider myself a "foodie." I love good food and I like to cook. I am responsible for cooking for my family, which includes 3 small kids. So I am in the kitchen a lot for meals and snacks. I need recipes that are practical, meaning I can't spend 3 hours running around trying to find an obscure ingredient! I guess what I am trying to say is that I don't consider cooking a "chore" but it is not a "hobby" either. I need recipes that have ingredients I can easily find at the grocery store and don't have a lot of pre/cook time.
