Kashmiri Rogan Josh

The famous mutton dish with rich red sauce made easy! Rogan Josh is a dish of Persian origin & roughly translates as "cooked in hot fat or ghee." This classic Mughal dish is commonly served in the traditional Kashmiri feast called "Wazwan" (36 courses minimum) where every part of the goat is used. Traditionally the yogurt based sauce is made a deep, brilliant red by the addition of ratan jot, a powder made from the roots of the alkanet plant (Alkanna tinctoria) as well as the Kashmiri mirch. I've used a tablespoon of canned tomato paste in this recipe to give the sauce the same deep red you'd get using ratan jot. This is a very hearty, rich dish perfect for a fall or winter meal served with rice, pilaf, or a crusty loaf of French bread.
