Don’t be fooled – this a recipe for the western world – it misses so many marks that indian restaurants give – no bay leaf – and (lol) cooking spinach (let alone nutmeg ) – no ginger – and what of butter or a drop of cream and lastly no garam masala nor yogurt pre – marination…just good for the novice – in fact you could just about cook any thing indian this way but definitely not gosht palak – but real a smable for the puka desi style…one thing you did justice – the magic is the oil .
