What is Pakistan’s national dish? Hint: It’s not daal roti!

[Irfan Baloch]

daal roti and sabzi roti bhai jaan ghareeb or khata hi kya hai yahan sabzi is liye because we are agricultural countries green ,

when I was in Sialkot some long time ago ..someone took me to a (shia) place in the city where they served a curry of 5 daals with naan during Moharram time in the evening just like free lunger of Golra sherif or data darbar.


.. tell you what .. that daal on the naan could beat any meat based dish hands down. being mainly a meat eater I found my self converted to the idea that a dish can be tasty & nourishing without meat.

Bit hilarious when people shows paneer,chicken ,biryani ..Bhiyaa thodi garibo ki thali mein dekho ,malum chal jayega.And India being a poor country with 70 % people still lives below ₹5k per month ,Daal is the only national dish.

i feel sorry . vegitables are favorite specally in local areas where formers grow and sale cheap ? we have smae situation here

national dish doesnt mean that it has to be something common man eats everyday. just like water is never national drink. national dish should be the one thats usually eaten on special occasions.

Well I thought it was Biryani . But how can it be Saag isn't its time consuming to make Saag ? with all that cutting and all?

No its not that time consuming, the cooking part, but picking it from fields may be a bit laborious.
