Saag Gosh (Indian Lamb Stew) image

This recipe is from the Sept. 16, 2008 edition of the "Living" section of our local newspaper, "The Democrat & Chronicle". DH and I love Indian food but have never cooked it ourselves. It sounded simple enough for someone who has never tried their hand in it--and not to mention delicious. The recipe calls for lamb, but I might also try using chicken dark meat. I have not cooked this yet.
