Ingredients:

For the Marination:  

• 1 kg mutton (bone-in, preferably)  
• 1 tbsp yoghurt  
• 1 sachet Nuvi Spicez' Meat Masala
• Salt to taste  

For Searing the Mutton:

• 4 tbsp oil or ghee  
• 1 tsp Nuvi Spicez' Whole Garam Masala 

For the Base and Gravy:

• 2 medium onions, finely sliced  
• 2 tbsp ginger-garlic paste  
• 2 tsp Nuvi Spicez' Perfect Spicy-Perfect Colour Red Chilli Powder  
• 1/2 tsp Nuvi Spicez' Turmeric Powder  
• 1 tsp Nuvi Spicez' Coriander Powder  
• 1 tbsp yoghurt  
• 2 cups water  

For Garnish:

• Fresh coriander  

How to Master Rogan Josh:

1. Marinate the Meat: In a bowl, mix the mutton with 1 tbsp yoghurt, Nuvi’s Meat Masala, and salt. Let it marinate for 1-2 hours to infuse the flavours into the meat, making it more tender and aromatic.

2. Sear the Mutton: Searing the mutton is an important step in the Rogan Josh recipe that creates a delicious browned layer on the meat's exterior, which adds richness to the dish when combined with the spices and gravy. Heat oil or ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan. Add Nuvi’s Whole Garam Masala. Once it releases its aroma, add the marinated mutton pieces and sear until golden brown on all sides. Remove the mutton and set aside.

3. Prepare the Base: In the same pan, sauté the sliced onions until they turn golden brown. Add ginger-garlic paste and cook for a minute until fragrant. Stir in Nuvi’s Red Chilli Powder, Nuvi’s Turmeric Powder, and Nuvi’s Coriander Powder. Fry the spices briefly to release their flavours.

4. Simmer the Rogan Josh: Return the seared mutton to the pan and mix it with the spice base. Add the remaining yoghurt and cook for a few minutes until the yoghurt blends smoothly into the mixture. Pour in water, cover, and let the curry simmer on low heat for 40-45 minutes until the meat is tender and the sauce thickens to a rich consistency.

5. Serve & Savour: Garnish your Rogan Josh with fresh coriander and serve hot with steamed rice or naan for an unforgettable meal. The bold, earthy spices of Nuvi’s Red Chilli Powder and Nuvi’s Meat Masala will add the perfect kick to this classic dish.

Pro Tip:

For an extra depth of flavour, slow-cook the Rogan Josh on a low flame for a longer period to allow the spices to meld beautifully with the meat.
