Product Description:

Nihari is a slow-cooked, deeply spiced meat stew traditionally enjoyed as a breakfast dish. Made with beef shank or mutton, the dish is simmered overnight in a rich, flavorful broth infused with cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg. The slow-cooking process allows the meat to become incredibly tender, almost melting in the mouth. Nihari is served with fresh ginger, green chilies, and a squeeze of lemon, along with naan or kulcha, making it a hearty, nourishing meal. It has historical significance, originating from the Mughal era and remaining a staple of Pakistani cuisine today.

Important Points:

✅ Best cooked low and slow for deep flavor

✅ Often eaten as a hearty breakfast dish

✅ Garnished with lemon, ginger, and green chilies
