Kashmiri Style
Indian Lamb Rogan Josh is a rich Kashmiri curry known for its deep red colour, warming whole spices and tender slow cooked lamb. This Indian Lamb Rogan Josh recipe follows a traditional one pot method, beginning with a freshly ground masala powder, browning the lamb properly and then slowly simmering with yogurt until silky and aromatic.
Rogan Josh was popularised by the Mughals and became a defining dish of Kashmiri cuisine. The name refers to “red heat” and “clarified butter”, describing both its colour and its traditional cooking fat. The key to a great Rogan Josh is building flavour through whole spices, allowing the yogurt to assimilate slowly and giving the curry time to deepen over a long simmer.

The balance is key. Nutty sesame paste, savoury soy, gentle sweetness, sharp black vinegar and fragrant chilli oil create the base.
