Saag Gosht

This is an americanized version of the Indian dish made with beef instead of mutton. Even my children loved it as it's not hot, just tasty. My ex-spouse used to call it "Sad Goat", which probably explains why he is my ex. This recipe is from "The Color Book of Indian Cooking" by Eileen Turner.
