Is there a recipe for burhka, for those of us who like really spicy food?
There isn’t a recipe for burhka, per se. My personal sense of the dish is beef or lamb, in a brownish red sauce with the consistency and underlying taste of a thick curry, heated by the hottest jalapeno peppers available along with a healthy dose of paprika, with slices of whatever root vegetables are available, served over noodles or rice.
My own imagination has always placed it as some type of curry – Hottest Vindaloo or above, but of the stew-style curry from Japan.
Interesting… I always read it as more along the lines of a chili than a curry.
This answer made me go re-read the series specifically for the food recipes. I had sworn Burkha had mint in it. But found there was another spicy mint dish that wasn’t really named.
Personally, I much prefer the flavor of habaneros over jalapeños. They are also much hotter. I love to throw a couple dozen in a pot of whatever.
Ever tried Carolina Reapers? Hottest peppers currently.
