Is food an important part of festivals and Pakistani community gatherings in South East Wales?
There is a large Pakistani community in Newport. We get together for various events such as weddings and religious festivals. Food is always an important part of the gathering. Usually finger food is served. We cook minced meat with split chickpeas, and then grind it and add herbs. The mixture is rolled into balls, dipped in egg and fried. We also serve samosas and other buffet foods. The community gets together and makes the food, or if the event is a big one we hire a caterer. • Meat Pilau – cook Sughra’s favourite recipe Your comments Sophia, Islamabad, Pakistan Pakistani tastes are really awesome. The quality of food served at restaurants in Pakistan has improved a lot during last few years. Although Lahore is considered as the hub for finding rich and pure Pakistani food but now you can find good quality food anywhere. My favorite spot in Islamabad is Monal, serving great Pakistani food. If u ever find a chance do visit this place located at top of the hill named Pir Suhawa and en
