A Pakistani meal generally consists of a meat dish, a vegetable dish, lentils, accompanied by chapatti and rice. Plain boiled rice and salad, chopped onions and cucumber or readymade pickle may be added to any meal.

Fresh fruit which is delicious and plentiful here is generally served after a meal rather than elaborate desserts. However, most Pakistani’s have a sweet tooth, so a sweet dish is always welcome. Accompanying drink with curries usually fresh cold water. But you may prefer seasonal juices, lassi or soft drinks.
