Pakistani Curry Guide: Butter Chicken, Nihari & Chickpeas

Three iconic Pakistani curries explained: how they're made, what they taste like, and how to pair them.

Butter Chicken is mild, creamy, tomato-rich and loved by kids and adults alike.

Beef Stew Nihari is slow-cooked overnight with bone-marrow gravy and bold spices — Pakistan's most famous comfort food.

Chickpea Curry (Chana Masala) is a vegetarian classic, savory and tangy with garam masala and ginger.

Pair any of them with fresh naan and basmati rice. We serve all three daily.
