welcome boycey - what's a Chicken Palak?
Some of us would assume this to be chicken saag.  But then again palak is different from ordinary spinnach.  But the word does seem to be used synonymously for saag, more so up north than down sowf though ;D I'm sure there's an expert out there who will provide the exact differences.  Thing is once it's cooked, it'll be very difficult to tell the difference ::)

Chicken Palak is on a lot of restaurant menu's around my area, i was always lead to believe that Palak is spinach and saag is a mixture of leaves, spinach, mustard leaves and basella, i think its down to area and probably translation.

Thanks for all your warm welcome's.

Many years ago, I used to contract for a company based in Scunthorpe, "Westinghouse" an American Company which is huge or used to be. I always remember the huge Steel works there, does it still exist? :)
