- Without cleaning the dutch oven, add remaining tbsp of canola oil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add onions and cook until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add RawSpiceBar's Berbere & Mitmita spices and sugar to onions and garlic, cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

- Simmer the beef for at least an hour, up to two. Remove beef from the cooking liquid and shred it by pulling the chunks apart with two forks. Add beef back to the stock mixture and simmer for another 15 minutes.
- Serve with injera, couscous or butternut squash mash (see RawSpiceBar's monthly blog for recipes).
