Mutton Palak/ Palak Gosht

During our stay all across Andhra, my mom has learnt a variety of Andhra recipes. Among those dishes, mutton palak is one of our favorite dishes.

Mutton is cooked till tender along with spinach. Spinach is a good source of calcium and iron and so when it is cooked along with mutton, it leaves an immense flavor which am sure that you will not say no to. Spinach and mutton is a yummy finger licking combination. Just try this out and you will gobble up the entire dish.
