English travel vlogger and digital content creator Harry Jaggard has been travelling across the world to try different national dishes.
His fun videos not only show mouth-watering food but also help people learn about different cultures through them. In his latest video, he explored Pakistan and tried a very popular dish called nihari.
“Pakistani nihari is traditionally served with naan or paratha, nihari was originally a dish served to the royalty in the Mughal court and was eaten, early in the morning, after the Fajr prayer,” he said.
After tasting the nihari, Jaggard was amazed by the flavours and gave it an impressive rating of 9.0 out of 10. He added, “I am going rate this nihari 9.6 out of 10.
What is Nihari? Nihari is a stew that comes from Lucknow, a city in India; it was popular during the Mughal Empire in the 18th century.Nihari is made by slow cooking of meat. People usually use beef, lamb, or mutton.In Pakistan and Bangladesh, people often eat nihari with naan, a type of flatbread.
