Tibese, also spelled Tebese, is a mild Ethiopian meat dish made by sautéing cubed beef or lamb with onions, garlic, ginger, and turmeric, usually in niter kibbeh (spiced clarified butter) or oil. Unlike Tibs, which is often spicy and pan-seared with berbere, Tibese is more delicately seasoned, with no chili heat and a focus on turmeric and aromatics. Originating from central Ethiopian regions, it is served with injera and commonly prepared for holidays or guests preferring non-spicy options.
Common variations include Tebese be siga (with beef), Tebese be beg (with lamb), or fasting-friendly vegan versions.
