Gastronomy

Pakistani cuisine is a  blend of various regional cooking traditions of South Asia.Pakistani cuisine is very similar to North Indian cuisine, but incorporates noticeable Afghan, Central Asian, and Middle Eastern influences.This blending of flavours is dependent upon the region from which the food comes from; for example, the food in Eastern Pakistan is characterized by being very hot and/or spicy as is common to the South Asian flavour. The common meats that the Pakistanis consume are goat, beef, lamb and chicken; seafood is also enjoyed but only to some areas of the country. 

Now we will see some typical food from this country!

Dinner

Dinner is considered the main meal of the day as the whole family gathers for the occasion. Food which requires more preparation and which is more savoury (such as nihaari, pulao, kofte, kebabs, qeema, korma) are prepared. Lentils are also a dinnertime staple. These are served with roti or naan along with yogurt, pickle and salad.
