Our Finely Sliced Egyptian Pastrami offers tender beef cured with traditional spices and smoked to perfection. These thin slices are ideal for sandwiches, wraps, or charcuterie boards, bringing a taste of authentic Egyptian cuisine to your table. A rich, aromatic cured meat, Egyptian pastrami (known locally as basterma) is a beloved delicacy with centuries of tradition. It’s made by air-drying prime cuts of beef, then coating them in a fragrant paste of fenugreek, garlic, and a medley of warming spices. The result is a deeply savoury, slightly spicy meat with a unique aroma that sets it apart from Western-style pastrami.

Basterma is typically sliced thin and eaten as part of a mezze spread, tucked into bread for sandwiches, or fried lightly with eggs for a hearty breakfast. Its punchy, garlicky flavour makes it the star of any dish it touches. Unlike smoked pastrami, this version is air-cured, which intensifies its flavour and gives it a distinctive, almost melt-in-the-mouth texture when cooked.

Extra Tips:

  • Best enjoyed in moderation, as it’s rich and powerful in taste.

  • A few slices go a long way, especially when paired with mild accompaniments like cheese, eggs, or plain flatbread.
