@TLK

here is what wiki says, so I was right in post 10

The origin of the name of the dish is a mystery. Shami Kabab literally means Syrian Kabab in Arabic. Some are of the opinion that these kebabs were introduced to India during the Mughal era by Muslim emigrants from the Middle East. They had employed cooks from all over the Muslim world to serve in the royal kitchens. Some of the cooks were from Syria as well. The Sham refers to either Syria specifically or the Levant in general, and these kebabs literally means Syrian kebabs or Levantine kebabs in Arabic.

SindSagar's suggestion makes more sense.. as kebabs are from Arabs... so shami kebeb from syria.

:(........What do you mean Suggestion!......That implies I did not know what I was talking about...........

One thing I do know is the food.....and where it came from......:)

in punjabi , shami = evening may be some avid kabab lover loved to have them in the evening & named them shami kabab

Actually, shami = shaam ko

i.e. mein shami pakistan jaa rayah aanh = mein shaam ko pakistan jaa raha hoon

but just evening = sham (in modern punjabi)

Re: shami in the kebabs?

TLK's information is reliable one on the subject. Kebabs, koftas and pilous are all central asian dishes. Babur wrote in his book that people of India were quite strange as they eat anaj with anaj (roti with daal).
