  1. This is great, mate! I'm from Ethiopia and as the saying goes, each family make their own version of Kibbeh (I prefer to spell it Qibeh, because of how the Q is pronounced in Amharic but also to differentiate it from the Lebanese Kibbeh (Kofte) which is a whole different dish. And I thought it was SO cute when you said Koremina, it's Korerima. (and the closest thing to it is Indian Black Cardamom pods, then extract the seeds therein). That being said, you nailed the absolute indispensable ingredients Besobila (aka Holy Basil, Ethiopian Basil and the closest thing to it is Thai basil), Koseret (I don't know if this can be substituted so you can only find these in Ethiopian stores) and Korerima. Those are the "sine qua non" in making Qibeh. Now, as I said, every family carry their own tradition on how they make their Qibeh (that's why some regions are known best for their sauces because if the Qibeh is done right, then half of the sauce is done right. Where I come from (Gojam region), we add fresh garlic, fresh onion, fresh ginger, white peppercorns, fenugreek, a touch of turmeric (they say it's for color), a touch of cumin seeds. Try to add those and see what happens. Cheerio.

  2. This is one of those things where there are as many recipes as there are cooks! The one I make includes onion, cinnamon, garlic, tumeric, cloves, bay leaf, ginger, korerima, besobela, and peppercorns. By the way, the Brundo Spice Company sells the three ingredients used in this recipe.

  3. You've laid down a challenge, my friend! I live near Silver Spring, MD. One of the largest Ethiopian communities in the US. There are Ethiopians markets on every corner. 😁

  4. I generally enjoy most of your recipes… but this video's recipe isn't one of them. I find nothing appealing or appetizing about anything that smells or tastes of Vicks Vaporub.

  5. I once had a housemate who regularly used this in her cooking. Gave off the most pleasant aroma around the house. I always looked forward to her cooking. Smelt like heaven on earth.
