'''Nihari''' ({{Lang-ur|{{Script|ur-Arab|نہاری}}}}) is a [[stew]] from [[Pakistan]], mostly consumed by the Muslim [[Punjabi people]] of the [[Lahore]] region. consisting of slow-cooked meat, mainly [[Shank (meat)|shank meat]] of [[beef]] or [[lamb and mutton]], [[goat meat]] and [[Chicken as food|chicken]], along with [[bone marrow]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Cuisine|first=Samara's|date=2021-04-02|title=Pakistani Nihari Recipe {{!}} Beef Stew Recipe|url=https://samarascuisine.com/nihari-recipe/|access-date=2022-06-30|website=Easy Pakistani Recipes|language=en-US}}</ref> It is flavored with [[long pepper]] (pippali), a relative of [[black pepper]].

== Name origin ==
Nihari comes from the Arabic nahaar ({{Rtl-lang|ar|نهار}}), meaning "morning". It was originally eaten by [[Nawab|Nawabs]] in the [[Mughal Empire]] as a breakfast item after their Islamic morning [[Salah|prayer]] of [[Fajr prayer|Fajr]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Sengupta|first=Sushmita|date=3 January 2018|title=Nihari: History Of The Meaty and Buttery Breakfast Staple of The Mughals|url=https://food.ndtv.com/food-drinks/nihari-history-of-the-meaty-and-buttery-breakfast-staple-of-the-mughals-1795358|access-date=3 January 2018|website=NDTV Food}}</ref>

=== Popularity ===
Nihari is a traditional dish of Muslims of [[Delhi]], [[Bhopal]] and [[Lucknow]]. After the [[Partition of British India]] and creation of [[Pakistan]] in 1947, many [[Muhajir people|Urdu speaking]] Muslims from northern India migrated to [[Karachi]] and established [[restaurant]]s. In [[Karachi]], Nihari became a roaring success<ref name="th">{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindubusinessline.in/life/2007/05/25/stories/2007052500230300.htm|title=Nihari a la Mexican style|work=The Hindu Business Line|access-date=5 March 2016|archive-date=23 May 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130523114642/http://www.thehindubusinessline.in/life/2007/05/25/stories/2007052500230300.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> and soon was found all over [[Pakistan]]. Now Nihari is available in Pakistani restaurants around the world. A particular favorite is nalli nihari, which is made with marrow added to nihari, and makes the stew very rich. In some restaurants, a few kilos from each day's leftover Nihari is added to the next day's pot. This re-used portion of Nihari is called ''taar'' and is believed to provide the unique flavour. Some Nihari outlets in old Delhi boast of an unbroken taar going back more than a century.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thefridaytimes.com/19112010/page13.shtml|title=Dilli Ka Dastarkhwan|access-date=28 November 2014}}</ref>
