Sajji is a Balochi dish originating from the Balochistan province of Pakistan. Traditional and authentic sajji consists of lamb marinated only in salt with a few spices and considered done at the rare stage, served with rice cooked inside the animal, which is baked in an oven wrapped around a stone tandoor. In urban centers such as Karachi, Islamabad, or Lahore, chicken is often used instead of lamb, roasted until medium or well done, and served with rice instead of Balochistan's traditional kaak bread.
