Does it have to be from the country we live in or  foods from countries we have ties with?

@Disneywoman

it could be either 😊

Even though I lived in Canada all my life - I grown up with a lot of Asian food (East asian-Korean to be specfic) and South Asian food.  I'm actually been learning Korean for the past 3 years now starting in June 2020.   

If I was the cultural ambassador for my Korean culture is pulgogi (Bulgogi), Fritters, and the bachan (side dish) of kimchi

Hi @chyni

I'm Indian (Tamil) and I will definitely recommend

1. Rice with mutton curry, long beans, cabbage pirattal, raita, mor milagai, podalankaai (snake gourd) poriyal and appalam.

2. Rice with fish curry, tayiru (yogurt), uruka (indian pickles), long beans and appalam

3. Rice with saambaar, kattirikkaai (brinjal) pirattal, muttakos (cabbage) pirattal, tofu sambal, urukai and appalam

I'm literally starving while typing this

  1. Biryani: Biryani is a flavorful and aromatic rice dish made with basmati rice, meat (often chicken or mutton), and a blend of spices. It's typically cooked with yogurt, onions, and tomatoes, creating a fragrant and savory dish.

  2. Nihari: Nihari is a slow-cooked stew, usually made with beef or lamb, simmered overnight to enhance its flavors. It's seasoned with a blend of spices, including ginger, garlic, and aromatic spices, resulting in a rich and hearty dish often enjoyed with naan or rice.

  3. Seekh Kebabs: Seekh kebabs are flavorful, grilled or skewered minced meat, usually made with beef, chicken, or lamb. They are seasoned with spices, herbs, and sometimes gram flour, creating a savory and succulent kebab that is commonly served with chutney or flatbread.

These dishes represent a small fraction of the diverse and delicious cuisine that Pakistan has to offer. Each region in Pakistan has its own specialties, contributing to the rich tapestry of Pakistani food.
