Rogan Josh is a classic aromatic Kashmiri dish made of tender lamb cooked with various spices, yogurt, and a rich tomato sauce. Its depth of flavor and rich crimson color make it a popular curry dish.
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the lamb pieces and brown them well on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add onions and sauté until golden.
Add ginger, garlic and continue to sauté for a minute.
Stir in ground spices (cumin, coriander, paprika, garam masala) and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Return the lamb to the pot. Add chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about 90 minutes, or until lamb is tender.
Stir in yogurt and cook for another 10 minutes.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with naan or rice.
