Gomen is slow-cooked collard greens seasoned simply with garlic, ginger and onion – the fresh, mild counterpoint that every spicy Ethiopian platter needs.
Gomen is proof that Ethiopian and Eritrean cooking is not only about heat. Collard greens are chopped and simmered until tender, seasoned with garlic, ginger, onion and a touch of oil or niter kibbeh, and finished so they stay green and fresh rather than heavy.
On a combination platter, gomen is the dish people reach for between mouthfuls of doro wat or zigni. It also stands on its own as a light, mild option for guests who prefer less spice, and it is naturally suited to vegetarian and vegan eating.
Sit down with friends or family at 810 Beverley St, Winnipeg, MB R3E 2A6 and share your gomen the traditional way, straight from one platter.
