saag
Indian spinach dish
Saag is a South Asian dish of cooked leafy greens—typically spinach, mustard greens, or fenugreek leaves—spiced and often pureed or finely chopped.
Saag paneer combines the greens with cubes of fresh cheese.
The word comes from Hindi and appears on Indian restaurant menus worldwide: I'll have the chicken saag with naan.
