Red lamb curry from the Kashmiri wazwan feast; the colour comes from mild Kashmiri chillies and ratanjot.
History
Rogan josh was brought to Kashmir by the Mughals from Persia. 'Rogan' is oil or fat and 'josh' means heat or passion. Kashmiri Pandits make a version without onion or garlic.
Why it exists
Kashmiri chilli gives colour without heat and the slow cooking softens the lamb.
