Punjabi Dhaba culture produces well-done results by default — Karahi Gosht is wok-fried until deeply caramelized; Tari-wala Gosht simmers 45-60 minutes; Bhuna is dry-fried to mahogany. The Buffalo + heavy spice + pressure-cooking convention requires thorough cooking. Modern Amritsar/Mohali pub-restaurants and Chandigarh upscale steakhouses serve the international doneness spectrum, but Dhaba and home cooking are uniformly Pakka (well-done).

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
