In Pakistan, main courses are usually served with wheat bread either Roti or Naan, or rice. Salad is generally taken as a side dish with the main course, rather than as an appetizer beforehand. Assorted fresh fruit or sometimes desserts are consumed at the end of a meal. Meat plays a much more dominant role in Pakistani food, compared to other food. Of all the meats, the most popular are goat or mutton, beef and chicken and is particularly sought after as the meat of choice for kebab dishes or the classic beef shank dish Nihari. Sea food is generally not consumed in large amounts, though it is very popular in the coastal areas.
Curries with or without meat, combined with local vegetables such as bitter gourd, cauliflower, eggplant,okra, cabbage, potatoes,tomatoes, cucumber and peppers are most common and cooked for everyday consumption. A typical example is Aloo Gosht or literally "potatoes and meat", a homestyle recipe consisting of a spiced meat and potato stew, and is ubiquitously prepared in many households. Koram is a classic dish of Mughlai origin made of either chicken or mutton, typically eaten with nan or bread and is very popular in Pakistan.
I have went to a Pakistan restaurant and tried the main foods and there were delicious. I took some pictures of the great food we had and the are attached.
