What it is

Key ingredients
Lean beef, niter kibbeh, mitmita spice, salt, (optional: awaze).
Optional tweaks
Request 'no injera'. Ask for minimal or no awaze sauce to minimize potential hidden sugars. Ensure the meat is not marinated in anything sweet.

Awaze sauce (can contain honey or other sweeteners), trace carbs from mitmita spice blend.
