Pakistani cuisine is as diverse as it's people. Most
of Pakistani cuisine has Afghan-Turkic-Iranian roots, a
legacy of Muslim rule in South Asia, which got
'Indianized' due to the greater usage of spices; this is
specially true for Pakistani Punjabis, Sindhis and
Muhajirs (also Muslims in India); whereas Pakistani
Pashtuns and Baluchese have retained their cuisine
similar to our western neighbors. So in a wider sense
Pakistani cuisine is a blend of our western (Afghan-Iranian)
and eastern (Indian) neighbors, depending on the region
and people, of which many have evolved into their own
unique distinct characteristics. Meat is a major part of
Pakistani diet, whereas vegetables and beans are as
important. Wheat is also the main staple of Pakistani
diet, whereas rice is also popular. The content of spices
can range from very spicy/hot to mild, although spicy/hot
seems more popular. In recent times some of the Chinese
and American cuisine have also been adopted by a few
segments of Pakistani urbanites as well.
The recipes in this section contain both

I
started this site with a few recipes on static pages a
year ago when I was in college. Its come a long way since
then, and its getting bigger and better as time goes by.
As a student one of the biggest problems I had was FOOD!
Its something most of us take for granted back home but
when we try our hand at it, most of us find it isnt as
easy as it looks. Actually it IS pretty easy, as long as
you know what you're doing and what you're trying to make.
Throwing everything into a pot all at once and letting it
cook will certainly not turn out too good.
Here I have a collection of Pakistani recipes so that you
guys/girls out there can look them up and cook somthing
decent once in a while. Oh..a word of advice (from
experience), make sure you have all the ingredients
BEFORE you start cooking.
Look it up, print it out and good luck!
