Gete's perfect tikil gomen

Ingredients

• Inside the kitchen/pantry (you can just see the edge of the wood stove on the left). This is where I learned how to make the best dishes Ethiopia has to offer from the one and only Gete!
• Prep time: 1 cocktail
• 4 TBSP oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 4 carrots, sliced on the diagonal into 1/2-inch ovals
• 1/2 head cabbage, core removed and sliced into 3/4-1 inch strips
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ginger
• 1/2 tsp tumeric
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 jalepeno, chopped
• In a large pan that has a lid, heat the oil on medium. When hot, add onions and cover. Let the onions cook for 5 minutes, removing the lid once to stir.
• Add carrots, and keep the pot covered for 5 more minutes, opening it once again halfway through to stir.
