Bold, earthy, and deeply nourishing — our Fresh Saag Bunch (Mustard Leaves) from GroceryWala brings the authentic taste of Punjabi winter cooking to your table. Known as Sarson in Hindi, these vibrant green leaves carry a pleasantly peppery, mustardy bite that transforms into something rich and comforting when slow-cooked with ghee and spices. Browse our full range in Leafy & Fresh Greens or explore all our fresh produce in Fresh Foods.
The classic preparation is Sarson Ka Saag — slow-cooked mustard leaves with spinach, ginger, garlic, and a generous dollop of white butter or ghee, served with makki di roti. Mustard leaves can also be sautéed with garlic and chilli, added to lentil soups, or used in stir-fries and stews. Blanching briefly before cooking reduces bitterness.
Store unwashed in a damp cloth or perforated bag in the refrigerator. Best used within 3–4 days of delivery for peak flavour and nutrition.
Q: What are the health benefits of mustard leaves?
A: Mustard leaves are high in vitamins A, C, and K, plus calcium and iron — supporting bone strength, immune function, and healthy vision.
Q: How do I reduce the bitterness of mustard leaves?
A: Blanch briefly in boiling water before cooking, or mix with spinach (palak) as is traditional in Sarson Ka Saag — this balances the flavour beautifully.
Q: Can I freeze mustard leaves?
A: Yes — blanch, cool, and freeze in portions. They keep well for up to 3 months and are great for making saag throughout the year.
