Gur Papri is a purely Memon / Gujrati dish cooked during winters by women of these ethnic groups. This dish may be eaten at anytime but is recommended for breakfast and dinner. It consists of gur (jaggery), gondhar cooked with desi ghee and mixed with cut almonds, Chilgoza (pine nuts), akhrot (walnut), pista (pistachios) & kishmesh (raisins). My mother, it must be emphasized, is the best cook of this traditional dish.

Lunch: Urach (maach) daal with achar and bajray ki roti, Karachi
Via Flickr:
Urach or maach ki daal is a purely Memoni / Gujrati dish and therefore, alien to a majority of Karachi's population. This dish actually has lot of other ingredients like fried onions, green chillies deep pan fried with slit in the center; fish pieces and some salads, as per requirement. This is a specifically lunch dish and is rarely eaten for dinner.

Memon winter breakfast: Hara lehsun with bajray ki roti, Karachi
Via Flickr:
This is a confirmed Memon / Gujerati winter breakfast across Karachi, parts of India (Ahmedabad and other cities and towns of Gujerat province, South Africa, UK and parts of USA where this linguistic / ethnic group resides). We are Memons and every winter we get to eat this nicely cooked breakfast. It consists of finely chopped spring garlic mixed with either bajray ki roti or chakki ka atta and served with dahi. If you want, you may have chai or sugarcane juice. I prefer chai as sugarcane juice is hard to get at this time. You may also have brinjal.
