Saag Chicken

    I should have read the other reviews before making this. Do not follow the recipe as stated unless your end goal is to serve bland spinach paste to a crowd of 20+. Double the spice, add plenty of yogurt, triple the salt and add chicken broth during the chicken stage. I'd personally let it simmer an extra 10 minutes at the end. Then take everything I just said and cut the recipe in half unless you're feeding an entire football team.

    Saag Chicken, I searched high and low for this recipe before coming across it on askpalakkad com It was so good I must share it with you to save the hassle of trying to find it yourself! This truly is delicious!! Add a few cardamom seeds to the rice for a truly authentic Indian taste! Note: This is quite spicy If you do not like spicy food, adjust the amount of cayenne pepper (e g 1/4 tsp cayenne) , I should have read the other reviews before making this Do not follow the recipe as stated unless your end goal is to serve bland spinach paste to a crowd of 20+ Double the spice, add plenty of yogurt, triple the salt and add chicken broth during the chicken stage I’d personally let it simmer an extra 10 minutes at the end Then take everything I just said and cut the recipe in half unless you’re feeding an entire football team , Recipe is huge and will make about a gallon of saag Consider reducing Double all spices Otherwise it’s bland Use yogurt instead of milk
