Beef Rogan Josh

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses
Rogan Josh is a rich dish of Persian origin, the pride of Kashmiri cuisine. The essence of the technique is 'bhunao', i.e., thorough frying of the meat and spices in fat, which results in caramelised, deep flavours. The characteristic red colour was traditionally provided by a special root, but today Kashmiri chilli does the job.

Equipment Needed

  • Spice grinder (for fresh flavours)

Allergen Information

⚠️ Milk

Instructions

1 ✓

Heat the ghee and fry the onion in it until dark brown.

Tip: Deep browning of the onion gives the sauce its base flavour and colour (caramelisation). Don't burn it!
2 ✓

Add the meat and the spice paste (garlic, ginger, powdered spices), and fry for 10 minutes.

Tip: Searing the meat and frying the spices in fat releases the aromas (lipophilic compounds).
3 ✓

Remove from heat, stir in the yoghurt, then pour over the water.

Tip: Reducing the temperature protects the yoghurt from curdling.
4 ✓

Cook under a lid for 1.5-2 hours until the meat is tender.

Tip: The conversion of collagen to gelatin is time-consuming, but this makes the gravy thick and sticky.

Recipe FAQ

Why does the yoghurt curdle?
If it is exposed to sudden high heat. Stir a ladleful of hot sauce into it separately before pouring it into the dish.
What meat should I choose?
Shin is best because the tendons in it cook gelatinous and thicken the gravy.
