Berbere Stew

Berbere Seasoning's rich, warm and lively spices play well against succulent beef (or tofu) and lentils in this hearty stew recipe. This Ethiopian staple ingredient is a must-have in any lentil stew and is also a popular rub on chicken and lamb.

Instructions

1. Combine all ingredients in a soup pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about an hour, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender.
