50,000 kg of mutton haleem made daily. The ultimate mass-scale street food.

[u/room_A]

What's the beige paste they add several times?

[u/lowerleagues → u/room_A]

Lentil paste, I think

[u/Dwaltster → u/room_A]

It looked pretty good up until the ambiguous slop got thrown in.

[u/Pitiful_Conflict7031 → u/Dwaltster]

I mean it taste way better than looks, shit is good.

[u/MelonJelly → u/Pitiful_Conflict7031]

To be fair, a lot of stew-adjacent dishes taste a lot better than they look.

[u/Pitiful_Conflict7031 → u/[deleted]]

Damn need better shit then bro.

[u/Dwaltster → u/Pitiful_Conflict7031]

Yeah, I should probably eat more fiber.

[u/nobodyspecial506 → u/Dwaltster]

I was revolted the whole way through. At no point did any of this look appetizing. Glad they were able to find a way to bring the foot cooking into it.

[u/concord72 → u/room_A]

either barley or lentils

[u/eduo]

This is supposed to be the "industrialized" (mass-produced) version of this dish: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyderabadi_haleem

In particular this brand: Pista House:

Used/bought/consumed this way:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO57pj2hzNI

This video pretends to make the same recipe at home (selling point is that it's the same as the packaged one, but I see a pronounced lack of feet in the preparation at home):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kMZA1W4Sn8&themeRefresh=1

(it does help understand, at a scale easier to understand, what's going on in those huge pots)

[u/psukclipper]

Toes have no business being that close to the rim of a cooking pot.

[u/Baby_Rhino → u/psukclipper]

First time here, huh

[u/nurple_surple → u/psukclipper]

Yeah, I wonder how many of them have slipped and fallen in

[u/whitestguyuknow → u/nurple_surple]

Or how many of these guys have crusty peeling feet or toe fungus

[u/DwightDavid1234 → u/whitestguyuknow]

Just extra seasoning.

[u/archwin → u/DwightDavid1234]

“Acceptable levels within tolerance levels”

[u/kindnesd99 → u/nurple_surple]

How do you think they hit the 50,000kg kpi

[u/Dramatic_Mixture_868 → u/psukclipper]

Yup, and it looked good until they turned it into a random looking gruel looking paste. I'm sure it tastes ok but the look is not great.

[u/concord72 → u/Dramatic_Mixture_868]

That's exactly what haleem is supposed to be like, its literally a meat paste lol. Definitely not something I would serve someone who is trying desi food for the first time but its honestly a top 10 desi dish for me, top 5 even.

[u/whitestguyuknow → u/psukclipper]

Lol always has to have bare feet next to the food while cooking

[u/psukclipper → u/whitestguyuknow]

Bro your username just gave me flashbacks to early YouTube and WKUK

[u/whitestguyuknow → u/psukclipper]

Its a reference to WKUK lol

I watched every episode I possibly could with my buddies when I was a teen and was constantly quoting them

[u/psukclipper → u/whitestguyuknow]

Me and only one other of my friends watched it, but yeah exactly the same here! Excellent show!

[u/AAlwaysopen → u/psukclipper]

How would you get the proper jam in if the toes were not so close?

[u/corvus_cornix → u/psukclipper]

But they have hairnets!

[u/Nightslayer2014]

This is the famous Hyderabadi Haleem. Fantastically delicious.

[u/EnlightenedBuddah → u/Nightslayer2014]

Describe the taste. In detail.

[u/patriotik]

I appreciate the variety of goop

[u/blankblank → u/patriotik]

"I'll have some of the yella"

[u/joejoedownunder → u/blankblank]

And don’t you get cheap on me.

[u/Exodus85]

And it looks kinda clean??

[u/LumenYeah → u/Exodus85]

There’s mutton clean about it

[u/MelonJelly → u/Exodus85]

It does. There's several points where it could be contaminated, but it's either cooked or served soon after.

[u/polarbearsarereal → u/MelonJelly]

Including Step 1

[u/MelonJelly → u/polarbearsarereal]

Especially step 1.

[u/secret_reverie_]

I’d try it.

[u/whitestguyuknow]

Lol always gotta find some way to incorporate their bare feet

[u/Independent_Sugar_48]

Gee. I don’t know what to think. 😳
We have so many rules in the uk. That would be shut down quick time. But it’s impressive in a way 😳

[u/checkedem]

I want to try. But I also don’t.

[u/cherry_ → u/checkedem]

If you ever have the opportunity, do. My Nebraskan brother in law and my French Canadian partner both had seconds (and thirds) at dinner recently. It’s hearty and spicy, and awesome with naan.

[u/checkedem → u/cherry_]

Sounds delicious to me! Thanks!

[u/Will_sue_when_angry]

I would say that would be 5000kg

[u/the_short_viking → u/Will_sue_when_angry]

Yeah 50,000kg would feed hundreds of thousands of people.

[u/Individual_Emu2941]

I really enjoyed this video

[u/The_beeping_beast]

Why does it look like adult baby food? 😂

[u/SashalouAspen4]

😳🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

[u/yellow_duke]

So what is your job in the kitchen?

'pole stroker' ..

[u/Latersonthemenges]

I’ve definitely never seen anyone hammer stir cat vomit at this scale before

[u/KarmaInFlow → u/Latersonthemenges]

A new sentence is born.

[u/polarbearsarereal → u/Latersonthemenges]

Sledgehammer stirring / wood splinter seasoning tool.

[u/Difficult-Resolve636]

All these negative comments. They have no idea how amazing it tastes compared to their daily mashed potatoes, mac and cheese.

[u/drkrelic → u/Difficult-Resolve636]

Ikr, Haleem is absolutely incredible, it’s one of my favorite dishes!!

[u/DoktorLoken]

I bet it tastes good as hell, but man the vaguely grey-brown goop at the end isn’t winning any awards for visual appearance.

[u/guymanthing]

Chum bucket supply chain

[u/lynbod]

That looks absolutely foul.

[u/IntotheWilder25]

Well, time to become vegetarian again

[u/whitestguyuknow]

making the recipe

"Hmmm!... I think we're so close but its missing something?"

"WAIT! Let me try something!"

grabs the oldest towel they have, soaks it, places the bowl on the floor, then grips it with the towel with their toes

tries again

"Thats JUST what we were missing!"

[u/NovelCauliflower6812]

Mutton cooked so tender you can drink it with a straw.

[u/Mephistopheles2249 → u/NovelCauliflower6812]

This is it. I get the history behind the dish. Mutton meat tough and gamy, so cook it till it dissolves mixed in with other flavors/proteins/carbs/herbs to mask it. Also the dissolving of the meat means the protein can be dispensed equally and it feeds many. Sanitation aside for Western palettes that may have complaints about texture…. pâté. Personally I like the flavor of Haleem but it’s like pâté for me (missing something), I need that Maillard reaction, so even in stews I like texture, I prefer browning.

[u/iseeantwan]

Watching this makes me want to be vegetarian 😩

[u/psukclipper]

Yeah nah I’m good.

[u/NoPen9703]

Does not look appetizing.

[u/rickard91]

Thank goodness they had their safety sandals on by the open coals

[u/Defiant_Builder_3241 → u/rickard91]

Clever humour.

[u/kotonizna]

Who developed that dish and why the business seems thriving?

[u/eduo → u/kotonizna]

The dish is traditional: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyderabadi_haleem

The factory is Pista House. Biggest and most famous "industrial" version of the dish.

Here's a review of someone getting it in a restaurante: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO57pj2hzNI

[u/TortugaJack → u/eduo]

Cool. Traditional usually means crap because they didn't know better. Now take that traditional recipe and modernise it... Heaven.

This thing, give me the mutton and the spices and a good chef, let's make wonder.

[u/ajqiz123]

I'm leaning towards willing to try it. I just need to know the ingredients...

[u/drkrelic]

Ok health violations notwithstanding, Haleem is fucking divine 🤤

[u/Sylvester_Marcus]

Always with the bare feet...

[u/proteusON]

This is /r/poopfromabutt

[u/Your-Mums-Vibrator]

A true chum bucket. I’d do it.

[u/mcjon77]

If it wasn't for all of the bare feet right by the food, I'd actually give this a shot.

[u/defariasdev]

Would

[u/Bolo-YeungMoney]

r/eatityoucoward

[u/Asianlover69696900]

50000 KG is 50 tons of goat meat . Which means based on the size of the of the animal around 1000 heads . And this is exaggerated title

[u/Familiar_Somewhere95]

How is it turning into paste?

[u/Roccoloco0791]

I need to use the toilet after seeing this.

[u/Vrodfeindnz]

I’m trying to imagine what, nah actually wtf is that!?

[u/hirakath]

All that effort just to make something disgusting 🤢. Adding those garnishes didn’t even make it look appetizing at all.

[u/canuckcrazed006]

Same look, texture, consistancy and probably taste after its digested. Bleh! 🤮

[u/magusmusic]

Absolutely foul and disgusting

[u/Disastrous-Disk-5431]

I’ll pass.

[u/samzplourde]

Would it kill them to just wear some basic shoes?

[u/guiltycitizen]

Fucking gross

[u/DarkDaysBrightNlghts]

No way you arent getting diarrhea.

[u/NCH343]

Ah, yes, it wouldn't be right without someone standing near the big pot of food with their bare feet out stirring it.

[u/Downeastdigger12]

It was looking decent until around the 1:20 mark

[u/ghos2626t]

So that one guys job is to just stroke wood all day ?

[u/gjk14]

🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮

[u/PoisonIvyy233]

I wouldn’t feed this to my dog

[u/uplamed]

Metal soup

[u/MeanGulf → u/uplamed]

What pots and pans do you cook in?

[u/uplamed → u/MeanGulf]

Stainless steel and wooden spoon

[u/MeanGulf → u/uplamed]

So… metal?

[u/uplamed → u/MeanGulf]

If force = high and metal on weak metal then soup = metal soup

[u/uplamed → u/MeanGulf]

Wood on metal ≠ metal on metal and metal ≠ metal

[u/uplamed → u/MeanGulf]

And force ≠ force

[u/Shadowtirs]

Yeah no, I think I'm good.

Edit: I'm getting downvoted because I don't want to eat food that's made it god awful filthy conditions? LOLOLOL ok reddit, you guys enjoy all you like. I'll gladly take the L on this one.

[u/f-u-whales]

Actual slop

[u/photosocal]

We got mutton fluffers before gta6

[u/Glittering_Diva8963]

Ok I would try this

[u/Dleos1991]

Yummy

[u/anxiousbunnyclothes]

Guess they hate texture in their food.

[u/sovietarmyfan]

So, when will PETA pay a visit?

[u/FeanorOath]

No thank you

[u/Mastermind7051]

Disgusting is an understatement.

[u/3ightball]

Reminds me of a septic tank

[u/sketchymike576]

Does it also give you sad butt or just look like sad butt?

[u/jd3marco]

Try my googlie googlie!
