Method
Brown the ribs hard on every side in the niter kibbeh, about 10 minutes, then lift them out
Cook the onions in the same pot for 10 minutes until soft and gold
Add the berbere, garlic and ginger and cook 2 minutes
Return the ribs, add the water and salt, cover, and simmer 45 minutes until the meat gives under a fork
Uncover, raise the heat and let the liquid reduce to a glaze, about 10 minutes, turning the ribs through it
Add the chillies and rosemary for the last 2 minutes

From the kitchen
Ribs need both halves: the hard sear for flavour and the long simmer for the collagen. Skip either and it is wrong
The reduction at the end is what turns this from a stew into tibs. Do not serve it wet
Eaten with the hands, off the bone. Put out more injera than you think you need
Goden means rib, so here the cut is the whole name of the dish
