Pakistan's
North West Frontier Province is dubbed 'the land where the mountains
meet', and through this ancient land cut the Silk Route from China
to the Mediterranean and the Spice Route between China and the Middle
East. An extremely fertile valley assisted by the River Indus, the
origins of the cuisine of this region is wide ranging - the wok
from China, the tastes of the Moghul Emporers, the aromatic spices
of Kashmir, the cooking is simple in it's concept but complex in
it's flavours. This menu features kebabs from the Khyber Pass and
other dishes that emphasize the essential technique of karhai more
popularly know as 'balti' cooking. The karhai, a cooking vessel
which evolved from the wok, lends itself to one dish meals, incorporating
ingredients at hand quickly stir-fried with aromatic spices to produce
an all-in-one meal served straight from the stove top to the table.
