Steps

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted niter kibbeh, berbere spice blend, lime juice, salt, black pepper, cardamom, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
  2. Add the bite-sized beef cubes to the marinade and toss until they are well coated. Cover the bowl and let the beef marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for more intense flavors.
  3. Just before serving, remove the beef from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature.
  4. Transfer the marinated beef cubes to a serving plate, arranging them in a single layer.
  5. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro.
  6. Serve the gored gored immediately with injera or other bread of your choice.
