Ingredients














Method


  • 1Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pot and fry the sliced onions until golden brown.


  • 2Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for 2 minutes until aromatic.


  • 3Mix in turmeric powder, red chili powder, and nihari spice mix. Stir for a minute.


  • 4Add the meat and sear on high heat until browned.


  • 5Pour in water, reduce the heat, and cover. Simmer for 4-5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.


  • 6Add the wheat flour slurry and cook for another 20 minutes until the gravy thickens.


  • 7Garnish with fresh coriander, ginger, and optional green chilies. Serve hot with naan or paratha.

Notes


  • Cooking nihari on a slow flame enhances its flavor, making it worth the time.

  • Leftover nihari often tastes better as the spices mature overnight.
