There’s bits of info missing that would be helpful- a link to the “infused oil”(?), what temp to cook at? Also what amount constitutes a single serving? Recipe says it serves 10 but that would not be true unless one serving is 1/2 cup or less of the dish. Thanks.

  Hi Rachel,
  
  Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the confusion. We changed it to the correct serving number. And you can find the infused oil recipe on this page: 6 Easy Authentic Ethiopian Recipes.

We really enjoyed this recipe of yours a couple of years ago. I’ll be making it again this week…can I use regular stewing beef in place of ribye?

  Thank you! That would definitely be an ok substitution. Stewing meat typically aren’t the same high quality cuts as ribeye but they are cheaper and should work just fine for this recipe 🙂
