Rogan Josh
Rogan Josh (pronunciation: /ˈroʊɡən ˈdʒoʊʃ/), also spelled Roghan Josh or Roganjosh, is a dish of Kashmiri cuisine that is of Persian origin. The name "Rogan Josh" translates to "red heat" in Persian, referring to the dish's vibrant color and spiciness.
Etymology
The term "Rogan Josh" comes from two Persian words: "rogan" meaning "oil" and "josh" meaning "heat" or "boiling". Thus, the name can be translated as "cooked in oil at intense heat".
Ingredients
Rogan Josh is made with lamb or beef, which is slow-cooked in a gravy seasoned with various spices. The key ingredients include garlic, ginger, onion, and a variety of spices such as cumin, coriander, cardamom, and cinnamon. The dish's distinctive red color comes from the use of Kashmiri chilli powder and paprika.
Variations
There are several variations of Rogan Josh, including vegetarian versions that use paneer or tofu instead of meat. Some recipes also include yogurt or cream to add richness to the dish.
