What is palak gosht recipe?

A delicious combination of palak with gosht will be a sure hit for any table. It is a curry made along with spinach leaves and lamb meat. You can either fully dry up the curry if you are serving with rice. Or leave some gravy if you are serving with roti.

What are the benefits of palak or spinach?

The spinach is low in fat and high on iron. It contains high amounts of carotenoids, vitamin C, vitamin K, folic acid, and calcium. This leafy green should definitely be part of your regular diet.

How to cut the palak?

Separate the leaves from the stems and check the leaves carefully for any insects in them. Sometimes, you will find small dots on them. Those are the eggs of the pests and discard those leaves. Next, wash the leaves under running water to clean and remove any dirt on it. Finally, chop the leaves, either with scissors or with the knife on the chopping board.

Pro tips / important things to remember while making this palak gosht recipe

  1. Always buy fresh green spinach.
  2. Check for any insects or their eggs on the leaves of the palak.
  3. Cut the leaves after washing with water.
  4. Do not add water after adding the spinach. It has the tendency to leave water on it’s own.
  5. Adjust the consistency of the curry according to what you are serving with. If you are serving with roti, leave little water in it. But if you are serving this as a side dish along with rice, then dry up the water completely.
  6. You can either cook the mutton in the pressure cooker or just in a pan.
