| I had a really great dish the other day. Can't remember where it was from or what it was called. But they took ground beef and sautied it. Then they put carmelized onions on top and served it on bread. Good stuff. |

Not a big fan of red meat. I barely eat chicken. I've heard crocodile is good though. |

I found real lamen too strange when I ate it. I don't know, I still prefer the instant one, although lamen is good regardless of its kind :D |

Do sweet dishes count? If yes, then add Gulab jamun and Rasagulla in there too.
Also, a South Indian dish called Medu Vada... Scrumptious |

Cuisine of Pakistan:-
Curries, with or without meat, combined with vegetables such as bitter gourd, cauliflower, eggplant, okra, potatoes, rutabaga, saag, spinach etc. are the most common and often cooked for every-day eating. Various kinds of pulses also make up an important part of the Pakistani dishes. Lentils, called dal, have nevertheless traditionally been considered as an inexpensive food source and hotel/restaurants may only offer a limited variety of these dishes. Lentil dishes are also typically not served when guests are invited at home or during special occasions. The one main exception is haleem which contains a variety of lentils along with meat. A batch of haleem will typically take over five hours to cook. This dish is known to have originated in Agra, where the Taj Mahal stands today.
A favourite Pakistani curry is karahi, either mutton or chicken cooked in a dry sauce. Lahori karahi incorporates garlic, onions, spices and vinegar. Peshawari karahi is a simple dish made with just meat, salt, tomatoes and coriander. Among well known dishes are chicken tikka, kofta, mutton korma, chicken korma, nihari, siri paya, shab degh and chakna. Dishes made with rice include pullao and biryani. Sajji is a Baluchi dish from Western Pakistan, made of lamb stuffed with rice, that has also become popular all over the country.
All of the main dishes (except those made with rice) are eaten alongside bread. To eat, a small fragment of bread is torn off with the right hand and used to scoop and hold small portions of the main dish. Pickles made out of mangoes, carrots, lemon etc. are also commonly used to further spice up the food.
A Middle Eastern influence on Pakistani cuisine is the popularity of grilled meats such as kebobs or kebabs. Kababs from Balochistan and the NWFP tend to be identical to the Afghan style of barbecue, with salt and coriander being the only seasonings used. Lahore is famous for its kebobs and they are spicy and are often marinated in a mixture of spices, lemon juice and yoghurt.
Meat including beef, chicken, and lamb are prominent in Pakistani cuisine. Kababs made out of lamb and chicken such as Seekh kebab, Shami kebab and Chapli kebab (a speciality of Peshawar) are especially popular. Pork is virtually never eaten in Pakistan.
Types of kebabs (mainly made of Beef or Lamb) are:
Seekh Kebab
A long skewer of Beef mixed with herbs and seasonings.
Shami Kabab
A Shami Kabab is a small patty of minced beef or chicken and ground chickpeas and spices.
Chapli Kabab
A spicy round kabab made of ground beef and cooked in animal fat which is a speciality of the North West Frontier Province.
Chicken Kabab
A popular kabab that is found both with bone and without. Not so common as the traditional Kebabs.
Lamb Kabab
The all lamb meat kabob is usually served as cubes.
Bihari Kabab
Skewer of Beef mixed with herbs and seasonings. Although they may related to the area of Bihar, many Bihari people have also been surprised at the popularity of their normal cuisine.
Shishleek
grilled baby lamb chops (usually from the leg), typically marinated
Bun Kabab
A unique kabab sandwich.

England - Indian food :clown: |
you're close. we have a huge british-indian population now, as many families are at least 2nd or 3rd generation, and the foods they bring are very much amongst the top dishes. Atul Kochhar is a top name, having moved from india 15 years ago & mastered this new fusion, for example his own version of fish & chips - http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/d...hnd_86221.shtml
personally
Spain - roasted leg of lamb, but done their own kinda way, cooked with lots of garlic, rosemary & some vegetables including roasted peppers :D More of a spanish take on british food to get people like me hooked :)
Portugal - good chicken dishes. I'm not keen on sauces with them but they do the most tender & lovely chicken dishes, usually served with salad
Germany - Sauerkraut & Bratwurst (obviously not together!) |
