Assalamu Alaikum everyone. This week I am participating in Steemit Learning Challenge Season 23 Week#4 in the hope of learning something new. This week of Exploring The Global Cuisine, ideas have been given about Pakistan's Cuisine. Our course teacher @suboohi ma'am has taught us many new things about Pakistan's Cuisine. Anyway, I am publishing my entry along with the answers to the course tasks.

Have you tried any Pakistan's food? Which Pakistan's food is available at your local places?

We all know that Pakistani food has a good reputation worldwide. As I am a Bangladeshi and Asian continent, there are many similarities between Bangladeshi, Indian and Pakistani cuisines. I have tried the foods that are very popular in Bangladesh and Pakistan. For example, it includes kacchi biryani, kebab, haleem, nehari etc. I really like Pakistani style kacchi biryani.

Biryani is a very popular dish in Bangladesh as it is popular in Pakistan. Pakistani Biryani is also available at various local places in Bangladesh. And we have many restaurants serving Pakistani food here. Foodies regularly visit local restaurants to savor Pakistani Biryani dishes. I am no exception to this. I have also tried a few different reentrant Pakistani foods.

Also, Pakistani style kebabs are very delicious. I also tried shami kabab at home. My family also likes to eat kabar in Pakistani style. In our country, the demand for such Kababs really increases during the month of Ramadan. In the month of Ramadan, Pakistani kababs are eaten more by the people of Bangladesh. I find any kabab incomparable.

Make the given recipe or any recipe that you like from Pakistan's cuisine step by step in detail with pictures. Include your name tag with date in final presentationof recipe.

Today I will show how to make Chicken Karahi according to the recipe given in the course. I tried to do it according to the steps shown in the course. First of all I am presenting below the ingredients for making Chicken Karahi with the measurements.

Cooking Ingredients :

How to Cook :

Step : 01

• First of all I will place a kadai on the stove to make Chicken Karahi. Then I will add oil to the pan. When the oil heats up, I will add the chicken pieces for frying.

Step : 02

• After frying the chicken pieces in hot oil, I will add four pieces of green chilies to it. Then I will fry again for a while. After that I will add ginger and garlic paste in between. Then I will cook it well.

Step : 03

• In the next step, I will add the tomato paste that I had prepared earlier to the fried chicken. Then I will continue to cook it well in oil.

Step : 04

• In the next step I will add the spices. First, I will add salt to the pan to taste. Then I will add chili powder, coriander powder and cumin powder. Then I will cook the chicken pieces well with the spices. After some time I will add some water in it.

Step : 05

	After cooking well with the spices, it will look really delicious.

Step : 06

• Then I will add Yogurt whisked in between. After adding Yogurt whisked, I will mix it well with the chicken meat again.

Step : 07

• After adding Yogurt whisked, I will cook it for a while more. After cooking for two to three minutes, my Chicken Karahi will be completely ready to eat.

Is your local cousin has any food that resembles with the shared recipe?

I found one dish in my local cousin that is similar to the recipe I shared. The dish in the above picture is also made with chicken meat and in the local language we call it “Chicken Bhuna”. When I was making the Pakistani cousin Chicken Karahi I was using all the same ingredients as our local cousin “Chicken Bhuna”. But there is a slight difference and that is that in making Chicken Bhuna we use turmeric and onion. We did not use that in making Chicken Karahi. But the rest of the ingredients are all the same.

Which flavour or spice do you like from Pakistan's cuisine ?

Pakistani food is rich in spices so the flavors of its dishes are incomparable. This delicious taste is what makes Pakistani food so popular. For example, I like the spices of Sindhi cuisine of Pakistan. I also like their biryani which is made with beef and chicken. Different spices are added to make traditional food. I also like the flavor of the different types of kabar. And among the spices, I like cumin a lot. Adding cumin powder to every dish enhances its taste a lot and it also tastes very delicious.

Finally, I would like to say that I am very happy to have completed this week's course and have tried to give my presentation 100% according to the class of this course. In fact, through such courses, we can learn about different foods in the world, as well as we can create a new experience by making the recipes through the practicality of the recipes. So I always thank the organizer for presenting such tutorials in an easy way to us so that we can learn them very easily and make world class cuisines very easily.

Hope everyone will like it like me. I would like to invite my friends @wirngo, @hotspotitaly, @jyoti-thelight to participate to participate in course.
