Britain wasn't too into giving Eritrea to Ethiopia.
Britain also was for swapping the Haud (a triangle-shaped territory of grazing lands south of British Somaliland).
OTL Britain contemplated handing South Sudan to Uganda.

So here's a thought:
  1. Eritrea becomes independent instead of becoming part of Ethiopia
  2. Britain swaps Zeila for the haud
  3. Ethiopia settles the boundary dispute with Italian Somaliland in Italian Somaliland's favor
  4. Britain cedes South Sudan to Ethiopia
