Several South Asian languages have adopted the Persian word gosht گوشت (also spelled ghosht), meaning "meat" or "flesh".[1]
Gosht forms an essential part of Pakistani cuisine, which features many meat-based gravies.
In India, most gosht dishes include goat or mutton. In India the term "mutton" is more likely to refer to the meat of a goat rather than that of an adult sheep, as it does elsewhere in the English-speaking world. When Indian dishes are adapted for Western diners, lamb is the meat most often used in the adaptation. This has led to a common misconception that gosht means "lamb".[citation needed]
As the Hindu religion prohibits eating beef, and Islam prohibits the eating of pork, Indian gosht is not traditionally made with these meats.
Variations include:
- bhuna ghosht
- kadhai gosht
- raan gosht
- dal gosht
- nihari gosht
- rara gosht
- saag gosht (which includes spinach)
Karahi gosht is cooked in a traditional cooking-pot, from which it takes its name.
