Finger chips, or French fries, didn't actually originate in France!
The snack is believed to have been invented in Belgium, where locals fried thin potato slices as early as the late 1600s. The name "French fries" likely comes from American soldiers in World War I who tasted them in Belgium and mistakenly thought they were French because of the language spoken there.
Nihari, one of Pakistan’s most beloved dishes, was originally a breakfast food for Mughal royals!
Slow-cooked overnight, this rich and spicy stew was designed to provide warmth and energy for the day ahead.
Today, it’s enjoyed at any time—especially with naan or paratha.
Ingredients - Meat (Beef, Lamb, or Mutton) - Bone Marrow (Optional) - Wheat Flour - Ghee or Oil - Ginger-Garlic Paste - Nihari Masala (Spices) - Water or Beef Broth
