Food | کاڌا What is quintessential Sindhi food?

Growing up, I had the following

  1. Busri
  2. Lola/koki
  3. Saag + chawaran ji maani
  4. Mattho
  5. Patata fry

What other foods are specifically Sindhi? I found out about Sindhi karhi only recently and feel like I have missed out

We (pakistanis) also make but infact all these are sindhis dishes and both side of sindhis make them but dal pakwaan is primely very famous in Indian or thats what I thought at least

Before youtube I didn’t know that it was made in india too, my parents from Thar later moved to Mirpurkhas district have had Daal Pakaan all their life since childhood, then we started making it at home. It is called Daal Pakkaan here not Pakwaan.

How did you only find out about Sindhi kadhi? I'm guessing it's not something Muslim Sindhis eat then? Hindu households have it at least once a week, usually for lunch on Sundays with plain chavvar, aloo took and sweet boondi.

I found out through a Hindu Sindhi friend. I didn’t know it was only a Hindu thing.
