Shiro is a beloved Ethiopian dish known for its creamy texture and robust flavors. It is a rich, aromatic stew made primarily from ground chickpea or broad bean flour, seasoned with a blend of garlic, onions, and a medley of traditional Ethiopian spices. The key to its depth of flavor is the slow cooking process, which allows the spices to meld and the stew to thicken to perfection.
Our Shiro features the bold heat of berbere, a staple Ethiopian spice mix. It is a comforting dish that is both hearty and flavorful. It is typically enjoyed during special occasions and religious fasting periods, making it a significant part of Ethiopian culinary tradition.
Our Shiro is served with injera. Injera is a traditional Ethiopian sourdough flatbread made from flour. You can ask for your choice of injera, teff flour, or wheat flour. The injera acts as both a plate and a utensil, used to scoop up the creamy stew. The dish is accompanied by a side dishes of your choice. You can ask addon orders such as gomen (collard greens), atkilt wot (cabbage and carrot stew), or fresh salads, providing a well-rounded and satisfying meal.
Shiro is celebrated for its simplicity and richness, making it a favorite among vegetarians and anyone seeking the comforting flavors of Ethiopian cuisine
