Peshawari Namkeen Karahi
Peshawari namkeen karahi or Namkeen Gosht is a meat delicacy that hales from the villages of Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Afghanistan, where dishes like Namkeen Gosht are enjoyed till today. This meat recipe is a favorite amongst the people who live in the mountains, where the consumption of meat is a way of staying strong and warm, while also combating the extreme conditions of the mountain region. Its tender meat melts in the mouth, because of its slow cooking and tasty ingredients; it has become an all-time favorite for many people.
Peshawari namkeen karahi is also a very delicious substitute for the usual chicken karahi recipe, as it introduces the eater with a new series of flavors and nutritional benefits. While the normal karahi uses many spices and ingredients, this recipe only uses salt, ginger and peppers as the main ingredients, hence the flavor and tenderness of every bite is cooked with much consideration and with freshly cut meat.
