Chapli Kebab rarely gets the international recognition it deserves. The fragrant from whole spices complexity is genuine, not simple, and the technique involved in using dried apricots correctly takes real skill.

Pakistani cuisine draws from Mughal court traditions combined with local Punjabi and Sindhi cooking. I encountered it first in a Lahore dhaba and that context helped me understand it properly. chai is the natural accompaniment and the combination makes the case for the dish. If you haven't explored this cuisine seriously, Chapli Kebab is the dish to start with.
