Gosht or ghosht refers to tender meat, cooked for a long time, and used as an ingredient in a number of Middle Eastern cuisine, Central Asian cuisine and cuisine of the Indian subcontinent. The word stems from the Persian word gosht and the word "gulwa"Script error: No such module "Lang"., meaning "meat" or "flesh" and "savoury", especially that of goat.[1]

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".Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

The popular Indian subcontinental dish of Biryani as well as the Afghan dish of Biryan use Gosht as a primary ingredient.[2]

Some dishes include:

  • Bhuna gosht, a curry with a thick, reduced sauce
  • Karahi or Kadhai gosht, cooked in a traditional round-sided pot
  • Raan gosht, roasted leg of mutton
  • Dal gosht, with lentils or peas
  • Nihari gosht, a meat stew
  • Rara gosht, roasted mutton curry
  • Saag gosht, with cooked spinach leaves or mustard greens
  • Biryani gosht, especially the non-vegetarian version of it
