Niter kibbeh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Niter kibbeh or niter qibe (Ge'ez ንጥር ቅቤ niṭer ḳibē) is a seasoned clarified butter used in Ethiopian cooking. Its preparation is similar to that of ghee, but niter kebbeh is simmered with spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom, cinnamon, or nutmeg before straining. This imparts a distinct spicy aroma to it.
