Cooked the long way, because that is the only way it tastes right.
Ansari Haleem Ghar is a kitchen built around slow cooking. Haleem, harissa, nihari and paye are not dishes you can hurry — they take hours of steady heat, constant attention and grain and meat that break down into one another rather than sitting side by side. That is the whole of what we do, and we would rather do it properly than do more of it.
In the kitchen
Every pot is cooked to the same recipe at every branch, and nothing leaves the kitchen that the kitchen would not eat.
Haleem and harissa are cooked down over hours until the wheat, lentils and meat stop being separate things. Nihari and paye need the same patience for a different reason — the flavour is in what a long, low simmer draws out of the bone. None of it can be rushed at the end of the day, so it starts at the beginning of one.
The same recipes go into the masala pouches and ready-to-cook packs we sell, so a pot made at home starts from where our kitchen starts.

Cooking for a crowd
A wedding, a mehndi, an office lunch or a religious gathering is the same cooking on a different scale. Tell us the date, the number of guests and how you want it served, and we will come back with a written quotation rather than a number over the phone.
