About the dish
Kitfo is finely minced lean beef mixed with warm niter kibbeh and the fiery spice blend mitmita. It is traditionally eaten raw, though many people order it lightly warmed (leb leb) or fully cooked (yebesele). It comes with fresh ayib cheese, braised collard greens called gomen, and injera or kocho, a flatbread made from false banana. It is a celebratory dish and a favourite order in Addis Ababa restaurants, often shared with family.
