In Pakistan, main courses are usually served with wheat bread (either [[roti]] or [[naan]]) or rice. Salad is generally taken as a side dish with the main course, rather than as an appetizer beforehand. Assorted fresh fruit or sometimes desserts are consumed at the end of a meal.~~{{Citation needed|date=February 2014}}~~ [[Meat]] plays a much more dominant role in Pakistani food, compared to other [[South Asian cuisine]]s. According to a 2003 report, an average Pakistani consumed three times more meat than an average Indian. Of all the meats, the most popular are [[Goat meat|goat]], [[lamb and mutton]], [[beef]] and [[Chicken (food)|chicken]], which are particularly sought after as the meats of choice for kebab dishes or the classic beef shank dish [[nihari]].

Dishes, with or without meat, combined with local vegetables, such as [[Bitter melon|bitter gourd]], [[cauliflower]], [[eggplant]], [[okra]], [[cabbage]], [[potato]]es, [[rutabaga]], [[saag]], and [[chili pepper]]s are most common and cooked for everyday consumption.

[[Korma]] is a classic dish of Mughlai origin made of either chicken or mutton, typically eaten with naan or other bread, and is very popular in Pakistan.
