Pakistani Haleem Recipe - How to Make Haleem (حلیم): Making a delicious haleem seems like tough job but it's so easy and simple if you properly organize ingredients. Today, I am sharing authentic haleem recipe Pakistani style that people love to eat. It's a street style haleem recipe taken from local haleem maker who sells haleem daig in no time.
Haleem is basically a combination of meat, lentils, wheat, and barley cooked with spices that makes a delicious combination to eat. It's a best recipe that you can eat with a spoon. Some people also like it with naan. It's a famous dish in the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Indian subcontinent.
Haleem comes up with a different combination so sometimes it calls Harees and Khichda.
Many people get confused with Haleem and Khichda as it seems similar in look. Haleem is more smooth in texture while the Khichda is coarsely ground so it's not mashed as haleem. Itcanbestored in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days in an airtight container.
Haleem is the dish that is associated with my childhood memories. My mother used to make it on special occasions and one of the favorite dish of my father. Ammi makes it in a very big pan and distributes to all relatives and everybody loves it.
