    Query for Indian Asian cooks (rather than cooks that cook Asian stuff!!)

    Hi can anyone help? My friend has heard several Indian asians talk about a spinach dish done in a big pot that takes hours to cook. Any ideas of what it could be. I have had a quick look on the web but most 'saag' dishes are pretty quick to cook. TIA
