Re: Taaftaan, Sheermaal, Kulcha

Yes indeed.

Khameeri Roti (yeast bread), a cross between naan and a roti.

How do I know about this? God bless my typical Lahori foodie Mother, lol.

btw, these roGhnii roTiis look like they are Hijaabis with that ghunghaT on top. :hehe:

Re: Taaftaan, Sheermaal, Kulcha

It is roti, but a lot fluffier and softer than normal tandoori roti.

We'd probably need a new thread to name all the different varieties of stuffed parathas and naans.

Re: Taaftaan, Sheermaal, Kulcha

Our culture has quite a few different types of bread. The most common are:

Naan - This is the staple bread eaten in Afghanistan. It’s made from wheat flour and topped with seeds (poppy, nigella or sesame seeds). These differ from Pakistani naan in that these are larger and typically served cut into pieces.


Lavash - This is a very thin, soft bread, typically eaten with stews or soups, which can be made with either wheat or white flour. It’s more common in western Afghanistan, especially the states of Herat, Farah and Nimruz.


Obi non - This is a thicker, disc-shaped bread, which is made from white flour and is made by the Uzbek community. This is especially common in the provinces of Takhar, Balkh, and Kunduz, which have large Uzbek communities, and is a staple food there. In most other parts of Afghanistan, this type of bread is, typically, only eaten at New Years’ (Nowroz) and Eid.


Chapati - Self explanatory. These differ from Pakistani chapati in that these are larger, thicker, and a bit denser.


Roht - A sweetened bread, typically eaten with tea. It can be made with either wheat or corn flour. The wheat variety is more dense and soft, while the variety made with corn flour is lighter and a bit more dry and crumbly.

I believe it’s eaten mainly in Kashmir. There is a Pakistani bakery/cafe near where I live, which is owned by a Kashmiri gentleman and serves mainly Kashmiri foods, and I’ve noted that they have a few varieties of lavash. I asked the gentleman how common it is as I wasn’t aware Lavash was eaten in Pakistan. He said it was commonly eaten for breakfast, folded up with nuts in between.

Re: Taaftaan, Sheermaal, Kulcha

No I haven’t tasted it. Just heard from my wife and saw it on tv. She reckons it’s very tasty.
