Instructions
Clean the button mushrooms thoroughly and cut them into quarters.
Finely chop the large onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the berbere spice blend to the pot and stir continuously to toast the spices for 1 minute.
Mix in the tomato paste, ensuring it coats the onions and spices evenly.
Add the quartered mushrooms to the pot, stirring to combine with the spice and onion mixture.
Pour in the vegetable broth, using a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then lower the heat, cover, and let it cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Season the stew with salt, adjusting to taste as needed.
Remove the pot from heat and sprinkle the freshly chopped cilantro over the top before serving.
Serve with injera bread or rice for a complete meal.
