Sajji is
very Popular in Balochi Cuisine. It consists of whole lamb, in skewers
(fat and meat intact), marinated only in salt, sometimes covered with green
papaya paste, stuffed with rice, then roasted over coals. Sajji is considered
done when it is at the 'rare' stage. It is served with a rice, roti or naan.
But in Lahore it is usually served with rice.
In Lahore,
Chicken is used instead of lamb. But if you want you can also eat lamb sajji.
Namak Restaurant provides both lamb and chicken sajji. And believe me they
provide the excellent sajji.Your order would be served in less than 20 minutes.
When I visited
there and ordered sajji. When my order came, chicken hidden under the blanket
od perfectly cooked rice with each grain claiming its individuality. I don’t
know what they do and how they do. They are so consistent in taste that they
provide. The chicken is perfectly done. The skin crispy and salty and the inner
meat perfectly cooked and juicy and tender. To me the person who can grill a
broiler chicken thigh in a way that it neither turns dry nor is under cooked ,
is a perfect chef (as thigh is already dry part of chicken), well the rice with
carrots strips was authentic kabuli pulao. But, the quantity of rice is less
with the sajji, so we had to order another plate. Overall anything you try on
their menu is awesome. If someone has not visited I recommend it, a must visit
place and it’s not heavy on pocket.
This restaurant
has branches in M.M.Alam road and Akbar chowk. But the akbar chowk Branch
provides the best quality. This branch is located adjacent to Yasir Broast on
Akbar chowk, Lahore.
