ABOUT Mutton Rogan Josh RECIPE

I wanted to make it the authentic way and use only yogurt and spice powders. Luckily i had all the spices on hands specially black cardamom which i bought months back when i visited nuts and spices in chennai… It is a must spice because it gives the aroma and flavour to the dish. Also all the spices which are added in this curry is must because that what makes rogan josh, rogan josh. Rogan josh should be red in colour thats why it is called as rogan josh because once you finish making this curry the rogan the red oil should float on top of the curry. In the authentic recipe they add a root of a herb called as rattan jot which gives the red colour to it. Since i dont have that and it is difficult to find that for us. I suggest you to buy kashmiri red chilli powder and add it in this curry which gives the red colour naturally. Some people will add a touch of saffron in this too. But i didn’t add. I kept it plain and simple. This curry taste best when served with hot steamed rice, naan or paratha..
