Dig in! Stamppot is ready to be served. - Contributed Daviot Kelly, Staff Reporter
Though they might be out of the Cricket World Cup, Pakistan and the Netherlands provided their own brand of colour to the cricket showpiece. Today they provide the final in our dishes from countries participating in the historic event.
Nihari is originally a dish from the Muslims of Delhi and is most popular in Pakistan. It is a stew made from beef or lamb and curry. The Muslims of Delhi are the ones who actually brought it to Pakistan and popularised it there. Nihari is known for its spiciness and taste.
Stamppot (Dutch: 'mash pot'), is a traditional Dutch peasant dish made from a combination of potatoes mashed with one or several other vegetables. These vegetable pairings traditionally include sauerkraut, endive, kale, or carrot and onion (the latter combination is known as hutspot). It is usually served with sausage or stewed meat. The origin of stamppot is unknown, but it is a widely known Dutch dish and can be a cheap, hearty and filling meal.
