This recipe is based on another khoresht from the north-west of Iran, but we have gone all ash-pazi jadide (Persian nouvelle cusine) with this. Rather than dish up a vat of green casserole, we merely wilt the spinach, toss lightly with the prunes and top it with shredded chicken. The delicious sweet/sour sauce is drizzled over the top. I saw something like this done on Persian daytime television, but I only caught the end bit, so have had to devise my own method.
