Product Information

Onions: You can see only one onion in the above shot that goes in the haleem. If making your own fried onions, you'd need a lot more like 5-6 more onions. In our recipe today, I’m giving you the method that we use when making haleem. We essentially cook the grains and the meat in one pot, before pulsing it to give a stew that isn’t fully blended but with the odd tiny piece of meat and grain. To cook Haleem, we: I use store bought fried onions, but you can make your own. Cook 1 large thinly sliced onion in 1 tablespoon oil on medium heat, stirring occasionally until golden brown and caramelized.

Let me tell you, haleem tastes better the next day, like all curries and stews! So you can definitely make haleem ahead, but don’t garnish it until just before serving. Similarly, combine lentil and rice in other pots and wash thoroughly. Lentils require just 2 hours of soaking. This is agenerous dish that is almost always made in large quantities and shared with guests or sent to neighbors, friends, and family. If you want to store haleem further than 3 days, then it can be frozen up to 1 month in an airtight container.Cook for about 1 hour on medium high heat. Keep stirring every ten minutes or so. The lentils and barely are ready when they’re cooked through. This Haleem recipe is cooked low and slow for hours with some stirring in between. Everything simmers away together and harmonises beautifully at the end. Condiments:Condiments like fried onion, lemon wedges, mint, coriander, ginger slices, chilli slices and chat masala is a must for Beef Haleem and makes it super tempting. You just can’t have enough.

Wheat:Authentically whole wheat kernel (gehoon) without the skin is used for Haleem recipe. But some recipes call for broken wheat which reduces the cooking time and process. Haleem can be served with chopped mint leaves, lemon juice, coriander leaves, fried onions, chopped ginger root or green chilies. In some regions of Pakistan, Haleem is eaten with Naan or with any type of bread or rice.It came to India in the Mughal kitchen during the time of Babur. The traditional Hyderabadi haleem, a spicier version more commonly served in India and Pakistan, has some lentils and barley added to it. Haleem is great on its own as a complete meal. If you’re serving it at a dinner party, you can pair it with a traditional appetizer – anything that is fried or even a kabab, here are some of our favorites: The caramelized onions are an easy topping to make, and you usually never will find haleem served without these crispy fried onions. They’re actually my favourite part! 😛

If you’re making haleem on the stovetop, I’d suggest using my slow cooker haleem as a guide because the majority of it is done over the stovetop. I do plan on testing this on the stovetop and will update it when I do. Haleem Masala Powder or Spice Mix As mentioned above, Haleem is a combination of grains and meat. While there are traditional choices, the type of grain and meat really does depend on what you like. Let’s take a brief look at the possibilities. The Meat When the color of meat changes, fill the pot with water just enough to barely cover the meat. Bring the meat to boil, then cover the pot and cook for 30-45 minutes until tender. Meat curry is ready, let it cool.L entils and rice:Bengal gram (Chana dal) gives the best taste to the Haleem and I have also use a number of lentils like yellow (moong), red (masoor), for increased nutritional value. Begin by washing wheat and barley until water runs clear. Then soak it for 4 hours at least or preferably overnight. Haleem, by nature, isn’t a 30-minute one-pot meal-with-ingredients-you-probably-have-on-hand. A good haleem takes time, a few pans, and most likely a trip to the nearest Indian/Pakistani/Middle-Eastern grocery store.” The third is to mix wheat and meat curry and finish it with tempering. That's it. Although a long process but not difficult.

Lentils: I'm using a combo of three lentils, that is yellow lentil, red lentil, and Bengal lentil. You may Bengal lentils alone and substitute other lentils with more Bengal lentils.The last step is to blend the haleem. Now haleem is not supposed to be completely blended into a smooth paste, it’s supposed to have some texture.
