Popular Items at Abaseen
Abaseen is a cornerstone of authentic South Asian and Afghan dining in the UK, particularly celebrated for its traditional Pashtun flavors. Known for its rustic and hearty preparations, it has become a destination for those seeking the specific, unpretentious tastes of Peshawar and the North-West Frontier.
- The Peshawari Chapli Kebab is the undisputed star of the menu, made from spiced minced meat patties that are shallow-fried to achieve a signature crisp exterior and juicy center.
- The Namak Mandi Karahi (available in lamb or chicken) is widely chosen for its simplicity and depth, traditionally seasoned primarily with salt, ginger, and fat to let the natural flavor of the meat shine.
- For a fragrant and mildly spiced experience, the Kabuli Pilau is a staple, featuring tender lamb shanks buried under a mountain of aromatic rice, topped with caramelized carrots and raisins.
- Signature grills like the Chicken Tikka Murgh Malai are frequently preferred by diners looking for a creamy, mildly spiced alternative to the bolder, flame-grilled options.
Budget-Friendly Choices at Abaseen
Abaseen is well-regarded for providing substantial portions at accessible prices, particularly through their diverse range of “Meal Deals” and “Personal Deals.” Choosing a kebab-and-naan combo or one of the lunch-specific rice boxes is often the most economical way to enjoy a full flavor profile.
| Option Type | What to Expect | Smart Choice Example |
| Value meals | Complete meals at a lower cost | Chapli Kebab & Naan Deal |
| Light meals | Smaller handheld portions | Chicken Tikka Boti |
| Saver deals | Basic combinations | Single Chapli Kebab |
| Everyday picks | Practical and affordable | Chicken Burger Meal |
- Choosing a Single Chapli Kebab with Naan instead of a full 1kg Karahi helps control total cost while still experiencing the restaurant’s most famous dish.
- Simple meal deals, such as the burger meals or the 1x Kabab & Naan option, are often the most practical for a quick, filling lunch.
- Standard sides like Lahori Chana or Dal Mash are usually the easiest choice for quick ordering and offer great value when paired with fresh Tandoori Roti.
What to Order at Abaseen Based on Your Needs
The menu transitions seamlessly from quick, handheld street food to large, ceremonial sharing platters intended for family gatherings.
- For solo meals: The Chicken Shawarma with Chips or a Chapli Kebab Burger provides a balanced, portable portion that is easy to eat on the go.
- For chicken lovers: Options like the Chicken Namak Mandi or the Peri Peri Chicken range are commonly chosen for a lean, high-protein experience.
- For lamb lovers: Hearty options such as the Lamb Shinwari Karahi are preferred for those wanting a rich, bone-in meat experience with traditional spices.
- For budget-conscious users: Smaller items like the Egg Paratha Roll or individual Seekh Kebabs help manage spending without sacrificing authenticity.
- For breakfast: The Breakfast Special (Omelette, Channay, Paratha, and Tea) is the preferred choice for a traditional South Asian start to the day.
- If you prefer a spicier flavor, options like the Achari Lamb Karahi with its tangy, pickled spice profile may be more suitable.
- If you are looking for a lighter option, the Grilled Fish with Salad or a clear Peshawari Kahwa is often easier to manage.
What to Know Before Ordering from Abaseen
Abaseen specializes in slow-cooked and flame-grilled dishes, so the timing and preparation style are essential parts of the experience.
- Portion sizes for the “Special Karahis” are typically sold by weight (e.g., ½ kg or 1 kg) and are explicitly designed for group sharing.
- Family Deals (such as Family Deal 1) often provide significantly better value for groups, bundling Karahis, kebabs, and multiple naans into a single price.
- Add-ons like the Peshawari Kahwa (green tea) are a traditional necessity to help balance the richness of the meat-heavy mains.
- Some items like the Namak Mandi Karahi may take longer to prepare than standard curries because they are often slow-cooked to order to ensure tenderness.
- Availability of certain breakfast items is typically restricted to the morning hours (often 8 AM to 1 PM).
Is Abaseen Halal, Vegan, or Vegetarian Friendly?
As a specialist in Afghan and Pakistani cuisine, Abaseen is a primary destination for Halal dining, though it maintains a strong selection of traditional vegetarian pulse-based dishes.
| Category | Availability |
| Halal | Fully Halal menu, as is standard for traditional South Asian/Afghan eateries. |
| Vegetarian | Options like Lahori Chana, Dal Mash, and Aloo Saag are staples. |
| Vegan | Possible with items like Chana or Aloo Saag if requested without ghee. |
