South Asian curries

Nihari (Hindi: , Urdu: ) is a stew of the Indian subcontinent, which consists of slow-cooked meat, mainly a shank cut of beef, lamb and mutton, or goat meat, as well as chicken and bone marrow. The two most common theories of origin postulate that nihari originated either in the Indian cities of Lucknow or Delhi. It is flavoured with long pepper (pippali), a relative of black pepper and is often served with naan, roti or rice.

Jalfrezi (; Bengali: ঝালফ্রেজী; also jhal frezi, jaffrazi, and many other alternative spellings) is a curry dish popular in Britain. It was created in Bengal during the British Raj to use up leftover meat by stir frying. The stir fry technique was brought to India by Chinese labourers working in Assam tea plantations in the 1830s. The dish consists of a main ingredient such as meat, fish, paneer or vegetables, spiced and stir fried, often with chilli peppers.
