Indian Mutton Rogan Josh

Back to Home

Rogan Josh is a traditional Kashmiri curry made with tender mutton and rich spices. This flavorful dish is known for its deep red color, thanks to the use of Kashmiri chilies and yogurt-based gravy.

Instructions:

  • Heat oil in a large pot and add cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon. Sauté for 1 minute.
  • Add the onions, garlic, and ginger, cooking until golden brown.
  • Stir in cumin, coriander, chili powder, and turmeric, then add the mutton pieces. Cook until the mutton is browned on all sides.
  • Whisk the yogurt and gradually add it to the pot, stirring continuously to avoid curdling.
  • Pour in the mutton stock, cover, and simmer for 1.5 hours until the mutton is tender.
  • Serve with steamed basmati rice or naan.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound mutton, cut into chunks
  • 2 onions, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup yogurt
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
