What it is
A flavorful and earthy stew featuring tender lamb chunks cooked with nutritious turnip greens, onions, garlic, and a blend of savory spices. The focus is on the distinct, slightly bitter notes of the greens balanced with the richness of the lamb. Served without rice.
Key ingredients
Lamb (diced), turnip greens, onions, garlic, ginger, turmeric, coriander, cumin, black pepper, cooking oil, salt, lemon juice (optional).
If you order it anyway
Explicitly request no potatoes, chickpeas, or turnip roots (only greens). Ensure no rice is served and no flour-based thickeners are used.
Watch out for
Onions and small amounts of tomatoes (if used) contribute carbs; turnip greens themselves are low-carb but quantity matters; traditionally served with rice.
