Gomen is a traditional Ethiopian dish made from collard greens or similar leafy vegetables, sautéed and stewed with onions, garlic, and ginger, often in niter kibbeh (spiced clarified butter) or vegetable oil. Originating from Ethiopia’s highland regions, particularly in Amhara and Tigray, it’s a key component of the beyanetu platter, especially during religious fasting. Mild and nourishing, Gomen balances richer, spicier dishes and is served atop injera.
Common variations include the fasting version (ye-tsom gomen) with no butter, or Gomen with added green chili or carrots.
