Easy Lamb Rogan Josh
I guess the next few weeks you will hear my moans about home renovations. I didn’t fully understand the stress that truly goes with it until now. Despite all my running around and making sure we have a smooth transition into our new home I still have to find the time to cook. Living with my neighbours so close by I am sure they must get that aroma of curry at 10am in the morning. They are either cursing me for making them breath in the lingering curry smell or just because they can’t have some. At least I don’t cook a curry everyday or every morning so neighbours please bare with me until the craziness is over. I love sharing though so if my neighbours do stop by, I really don’t mind sharing my Easy Lamb Rogan Josh.
Indians are great at sharing, nobody leaves our home without eating something or taking a doggy bag home. It’s a trait I have from my parents and I love it. I do hope my kids can still carry that love of sharing in their adult lives. Although my 10year is quite adamant he will not share his food with anybody…….let’s hope that changes.
Rogan Josh uses similar spices to what we use in our Durban Lamb Curry. It is cooked a little differently but both are equally delicious. Please be sure to use freshly roasted and ground spices, it makes all the difference to the curry. This recipe makes an aromatic dish with succulent lamb. It is simmered on a low heat for a long time, this also helps develop the depth of flavour. It also helps the lamb become really tender.
I used ghee and a bit of fresh cream for that added richness. It was mainly for the kids, my 10-year-old will probably have it for every meal until the pot is empty. He loves any lamb curry that much, so I did splurge a little. As long as I am not eating it, it’s all good.
I hope you love this Easy Lamb Rogan Josh. If you do try the recipe please drop me a comment and a star rating. It is always appreciated. You can try my other lamb recipes too: Lamb Mince Curry Durban Lamb Curry If you loved this, please share!
