A non-vegetarian delicacy native to the beautiful land of Kashmir, Mutton Rogan Josh is the perfect blend of exotic spices such as Kashmiri chili, cinnamon, and cardamom and the rich flavours of tomato puree and cashew nut paste.

To make Mutton Rogan Josh, add whole garam masala and the sliced onions to heated oil and sauté until the onions assumer a lovely golden-brown colour. Next, the mutton needs to be added and sautéed on high heat for 5 minutes for the water content to drop off before adding the ginger garlic paste, reducing the heat and adding cumin powder, chilli powder, and coriander powder and sautéing it on medium heat.

Tomato puree and cashew nut paste goes in next, which is to be sautéed till the oil separates, and water (3 cups) is to be added after that to cook the mutton until it is completely done. For the final stretch, the yogurt needs to be whisked before adding it to the mutton.

Next, the cinnamon powder and garam masala needs to be added and the mixture needs to be allowed to boil when it is to be removed from the heat immediately. Garnish with chopped coriander!
