We need more Pakistani cuisine representation worldwide. Since indian and Pakistani cuisine resembles so much because of same historical background, whatever changes the Pakistani cuisine has seen in past 76 years post partition needs to explored more on a global level. Because its so rich and each dish is a burst of flavors with a story of its own. Go chef fatima❤️
Call it what you want. You can't deny the Indian part of your culture. All the Westerners will always see us as Brown peopl.
@@name_dropper8112 they see Mexicans as brown people too, so what? we are brown and we never forget our indian roots, we just changed in last 70 years and everything related to that changed as well
@@name_dropper8112 true
Indian cuisine is much more diverse.
You guys dont even know what a Dosa is
Most of it is common to ours though it's made slightly differently. Maybe pashto, hazara, balochi dishes..
'shami kebabs are made in every household in pakistan' can confirm as a pakistani is true, when i went shami kebabs were made in a lot of households when we visited relatives
God Bless
I live in Ohio. Will try to find a restaurant here that makes these. Will ask them where to get the materials. Yum
Saturdays are my cheatdays so let's make....
Shami kabab is actually from lakhnow/delhi area.
Pakis talk everytime as if they are from some distant place from india.
Identity crisis
Love it. Peshwari style are my favourite. 🤤
Chef Fatima! Loved her Pakistani Biriyani recipe. Great that Epicurious brought her back.
You know what's more delicious, instead of the bun and the egg, add this shami kebabs to the biryani. You'll be cooking the entire day however it will be worth it during dinner time.
I love her, shes honest and authentic, no bs, and a great rep for Pakistani cuisine. Should definitely make a series out if this. Bun kebabs are such a street food staple, very filling💗
Hii
@@humoursabji4045 Bro wtf is this incel comment.
Thank you Epicurious for allowing the lovely and charismatic Chef Fatima to give representation to the very unappreciated Pakistani cuisine! ❤️💜💚
Thank you Fatima a great ambassador for your culture and food xxx
Last time I was in need for a good biryani recipes and i came across with Fatmas recipes! And I loved it! I copied her steps and because it turned soooo good I forwarded to many friends.
I come from an Afghan family and trust me, we know how to make rice.
I love this chef! I love how she explains! Hope to see her many many many many more times in the future ❤ and Inschaa allah I will try also this recipes ❤
6:40 I love them with Pulao! They elevate the taste of that dish.
This series is becoming my fave. As an Indian from Punjab, a lot of what the chef says resonates
Because Pakistani food is just Punjabi food.
@@NostalgiaforInfinity are u dumb
@@HASHO745 That's the truth, kid, whether you like it or not. When people say "Pakistan" anything, they're talking about the Punjab province, because it tries to dominate over every other province. And Punjabi food is pretty much the same on either side of the border, regardless of the partition.
Hmmm, but I feel that bun kebab is not that famous across India though.
@@NostalgiaforInfinity There is some difference. Less emphasis on meat on the Indian side. Also difference in amount of spices and amount of oil or ghee. But then, there are also differences within Punjab itself, where Lahori food is generally considered to be on the heavier side.
This chef is amazing. Her recipes and her trivia is 100% authentic. Love you epicurious!
Fatima always makes me want to get up and cook exactly what she’s making no matter time i see her videos. I absolutely love anda shami - this is a perfect recipe
I like the idea of cooking down the meat and processing it into patties, seems like a good way to make a few weeks of food in a batch
Most Pakistani families actually do that. Just freeze the shami patty and fry one whenever you're in the mood.
Yes! I can take this to work everyday!
I usually make a large batch, place them on a sheet tray, lined with baking paper making sure the kababs aren’t touching each other, cover with foil and freeze them. Once they are frozen, I transfer them to a food safe bag.
I don’t defrost the kababs before cooking them. Just heat up some oil at medium heat, dip the kababs in beaten egg and fry until done.
@@zky10 lol, why?
Every home in Pakistan make them in huge quantity and froze it. And use it for months.
Fatima Khawaja, from NY city, living now in DC USA, where have you been all my life, I would've learn it all from you, when ever advice was needed from someone, abot 30 years ago, yar. Now Im a great cook myself, leaned it the hard way, practice and practice. I like your recepie, my mom made it little differently though. I ve left Lahore in 1980's. I miss it.😆😆😆😆😆
Bun kebab is something I desperately missed after moving to Canada. For me, it was a cheap, hot, fresh and yummy street snack,,,to end your shopping trip with your mom....to grab a quick bite during lunch break at office....to enjoy it with friends while on budget as students...a late night eat-in-car snack on a long drive...to pack for picnics with family...the first platter to disappear on a family get together... it was not just food...it was countless memories...
3:15 that was very relatable for me. My mother taught me to always ask for free coriander/cilantro and chilli. We use to call FREE KA DHANIYA MIRCH.
Same its free in Punjab and Sindh Pakistan especially in summers
All desis are same at the end of the day 😂
The way this woman speaks is love!
Chef Fatima is so soft-spoken I can hear her all day ngl
Epicurious learned the lesson since the freekeh episode. Fatime is one of the best additions to the channel.
I love it! Thank you for bringing Fatima back. I really like her style and cooking skills. Here recipes look amazing. Bun kebabs are one of my favourite things to eat. Soo good!!
Chef Fatima is so much on point with the recipes, just the way we make it at home.
So glad to see Fatima back! And wow i've been fed shami kebabs just like this all my childhood but I didn't actually realise thats how they were made...nice
she is perfect for representing her culture
This looks AMAZING! I definitely want to try them at least once in my life!
The ingredients and way it’s been made means I know I’d love it! Really looks delicious 😋
"Unda shami sandwich"😂 thats the most burger thing I've ever heard (only pakistanis will get this)
IKR! 😂
But it's because here in the US they call something like zinger burger a chicken sandwich
lol paindu west mai burger ko sandwich bhi boltay hain
@@ayeshabilal5149 dumbo zınger burger ıtself comes from KFC not from some Pakıstani desi cuisine
Loray
@@rationalbeing4371 to hum west k sath chalay? Wanna be western
Love that Pakistan food is finally getting recognition.
It’s so good to see another video from Chef Fatima. I forwarded the biryani one to so many friends haha and now this one! Can’t wait to try it out! I am not from a Pakistani background but love a shami kebab haha! You’re the best! ❤
These are amazing for entertaining. Bun kabobs are one of my favorite foods and I'm so happy to see Fatima nail it once again! 😊
Loved it fatima as a Pakistani I know how delicious these bun Kababs are please try this recipe she explained it perfectly.
One question have you ever tried persian food
@@theguyver4934 no I think so not but please tell me one easy one
Thanks for uploading this just before Ramadan ❤️
Love the way you give detail of each step
Love Chef Fatima! I just visited Karschi last week and had Bun Kebabs they are such a great meal/snack!!🙌🙌
Love how you explain each step with authenticity. Please do some more videos on our Pakistani cuisine
Ugh that looks SO good, I need one.
"You don't have to be precious about it." Sage advice.
I love this chef - more videos PLS!
Glad to see Fatima back. I loved and tried her biryani recipe (it didn't turn out as nice as hers did! Very tasty though)
Love this!
As someone who is from Pakistan this is Amazing.
I would add just one thing tho.. Do season your omelet.. with just salt and laal mirch (Red Chilli Powder)
Thanku for representing our food , My mother makes shami kababs and freeze them so incase if there is any guest we can serve them ❤ our go to snack
Love it, Fatima 💙 another great video
i love her so much please never get rid of her
love pakistani street food..pakistani cuisine is easily my fav cuisine. love their karahis and kababs and also Fatimah explained it elegantly
It looks yummy 😋 I bet it smells amazing!
Wow! What a coincidence! Just having home-made bun kababs with ketchup, mustard sauce and jalapeños, which elevate it to the next level! 😋
So authentic and very well explained
I have never made Bun Kebab at home. I would love to try this out.
Great to see her again. I love her comments and occasional jokes.
Pakistani cuisine is very good🥰😋.
Omg so happy to see some Pakistani street food representation!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That looks amazing
Amazing video thumbs up Chef Fatima
We LOVE chef Fatima 💜
Looks amazing
I need chef Fatima more on this channel.
Wait that's my recipe! I've been making and eating shami kababs this way for my whole life. That's such a good recipe for meal prep and is my go to breakfast with bread and Ketchup or a desi ghee pratha. It's a super quick breakfast. I always make them in bulk to freeze and eat later as a snack with chai or with pulao as a side or many other things. It's really good and this recipe is really good too! You can actually make 70 80 kababz and easily freeze them for 2 months.
Love this series. P.s I'm from Lahore too✨️
Loving pakistani food series chef is amazing
For a Mexican, Amy Santiago sure knows her Pakistani food
Who would've known?!
Was looking forward to the imli chutney, thought you’d show how to make it from scratch, oh well :/ thanks for this anyway, definitely gonna try it!
Damn that looks so good😭. I really miss when I used to live in Karachi, could get a double meat, anda burger for like 50 ruppees, but that was ages ago. Ik it must be crazy expensive now.
Bun kabab is now 150 daal one. Shami is 170 and anda special is 200😉
It costs less than a dollars
She's brilliant!
One of my all-time favorite Bun Kabab 😋
this is great!
Cher fatima is great . thanks for bringing her back . We need more Pakistani reepies please in English.
She's becoming my favorite ❤️
Yummy ❤! Thank you Chrf 👏🏽
Loved it
Chef Fatima is great, I want a full series on Pakistani food presented by her
Shami kebabs still in our refrigerator ❤ and we just love it
I live in Lahore and our mother makes Bun Kebab's once a week and it's my favourite cheat meal 😋.
ENJOYEDDD THIS VIDEOOOOOO!!!
Lovely Pakistani cuisine is just super delicious and so flavourful omg my mouth is watering already..♥️😅
Have you ever tried persian food
@@theguyver4934 Yes absolutely Persian food is also part of our cuisine as Pakistan and Iran are neighbours and we have mixed cuisines over here.
@@Happy_Potato0 Yes but did you ever try it and liked it
@@Happy_Potato0 - Hello your reply
She is back!!! OMFG! YAAAAAAS
Lovely u see a Pakistani ❤️❤️❤️❤️
LOVEEEE THISSSS
fav meal!
Looks delicious
Finally a chef from Pakistan ❤❤❤
Finally PAKISTANI 🇵🇰
I grew up in Lucknow, India. Bun Kababs were fairly popular back then but the version I was used to was a much more stripped down version - shami kabab, onion, bun, maybe chutney - that's it. It was delicious. In fact, just thinking about it is making my mouth water.
I remember the street food version of these from Pakistan. My ex’s family were more chappli kebab fans. I think I’ll give these a go but with like 80% less oil than the street food version.
It’s weird to hear you talk about the high heat. I cook everything on pretty high heat and my current partner always mentions it. The flavours don’t come out fully unless the oil heats up enough.
That's right high heat developes the spices favor profiles!
Chef F killin it
I'm from Karachi ..like the bun kebab version we have is like huge lol like there are some bun kebabs which only got peti and chatni and raw onion and they are osm and then there are ways of making anddy wala burger which you made it but we put alot of more things so it's kinda craze the flavours like complete different on every next place but you made osm chef
we love Pakistani food and Fatima.
So true about the high heat! I have never seen a Pakistani cook use low or medium flame. More is always better, amirite? Same thing using high beam lights on a car, which is super common in Pakistan, oncoming traffic be damned.
Only a few years into my experience with cooking did I learn about the marvel of flame adjustment :)
nihari and haleem send you their hellos.
Strange . Because I always cook food on slow flame and I as Pakistani
for someone who did not grow up in the US, her English is so good. I'm jealous (German here who has been learning English for 10 years and still does not feel confident)
A lot of Pakistanis, especially upper middle class and elites, are bilingual or trilingual, even growing up inside Pakistan (Urdu, English and Punjabi speaking, for example). I am half German, half Pakistani btw! Tschuess!
@@masoodrazaq whoa , that's quite a combination 😅
English is one of Pakistan's official languages, and anyone who's had basic education in Pakistan can speak & understand English! Especially in urban Pakistan, where Fatima's from.
Most pakistanis know basic english. It's her accent that got adapted.
Thank you for supporting Pakistan 🇵🇰
For a moment i thought she is Samiya Mumtaz from the Pakistani series SANG- E- MA
please give Chef Fatima a series
You just made me feel like a half Pakistani lol. I've just realised I've not had any for a very long time, the cost of living overseas.
Mum used to make them in large batches and freeze them, ready to be eaten at anytime.
Yummmmm
Fatima is amazinggg
better than anything at mcdonald’s and 1/3 the price
Love her.
What a top chef. That looks so delicious
Do you guys eat Bum Kababs in India? This is a Karachi street food, so why you Indians are claiming this to be yours?
Finally an easy shami kebab recipe! What is the ground chicken to water ratio?
Yum yum yum🥰
Thank you ma’am for introducing us to this lovely Pakistani food. Cheers from Singapore.💐
YESSS
Chef Fatma is so great 🤍💚🙌
she is an icon
