Directions
Lamb in Pureed Spinach (Saag Gosht),A delicious and nutritious Indian dish. Can complete the cooking in the oven if you need the stove top for other dishes, so ideal for a dinner party. Can also use tinned tomatoes instead of fresh. Easier to make than it looks!,Needed a lot of tweaking but was very tasty in the end. Even using boneless loin it needed 90 minutes simmering after the initial prep/frying off was done. The spice mix was a bit flat so I added a variety of others to lift things as well as lemon juice and nam pla. used 450gm meat and simmered the sauce down to where I could drag a spoon through and see the base of the pot. The sauce-meat ratio worked well at that point. In short, a good starting point but I’d suggest it’s for more confident cooks who don’t mind tasting and adjusting as they go.,This turned out pretty well, but we felt that the spices were a little off. We just felt that this didn’t quite have the rich spiced flavor of many Indian dishes that we’ve made and loved. used cannted tomatoes and frozen spinach and I had to substitute the brown cardamom with green because that’s what I had on hand. I think I agree with Jan that this would perhaps benefit from a bit of yogurt being added, or BF and I thought of as we were discussing what we thought of this dish perhaps a bit of lemon juice? We did serve with yogurt, but I also think that perhaps the spicing was a bit too mild as well. I thought it was very easy to follow with the way you have listed the spices. It makes it much easier not to forget something. I got a little confused with steps 1-4, which say to sear the meat and to fry the onion. Now, step 4 says “at the same time fry onion”, but I was unsure as to whether this meant with the meat or in a seperate pan? I seared the meat, removed it from the pan, then fried the onion, and added the meat with the spinach. The fact that the recipe does not say when to add the meat confused me too. Anywhow, it turned out alright in the end. We served it over a spiced saffron rice and with an eggplant curry of our own devices. All-in-all, not bad!
