    Real Shinwari karahi is defined by what you leave out. We have not changed the recipe since 2014.

      Why it tastes different

      The Shinwari way

      Shinwari cooking comes from the Khyber hills, where meat was too good to hide under spice. Three things carry the whole kitchen.

      01

      Dumba fat, not oil

      The karahi cooks in fat rendered from the sheep's own tail. No cooking oil, no ghee, no water. That fat is the entire sauce.

      02

      Charcoal, never gas

      Kababs and tikka go over live coals in an open pit. The tandoor is fired every morning and the naan never leaves it cold.

      03

      Sold by the kilo

      You pick the cut and the weight, we cook it to order in a fresh karahi. Nothing sits in a warmer waiting for you.
