Instant Pot Lamb Rogan Josh
Instant Pot Lamb Rogan Josh
This perfectly cooked lamb will melt in your mouth! The meat is cooked in an onion and yogurt gravy, making it both flavorful and tender. Rogan Josh, a popular Kashmiri dish with Persian origins, is a mild curry that isn’t meant to be spicy. The signature red color of this curry comes from the use of Kashmiri chili peppers, which are very mild and taste similar to paprika. If you want to substitute Kashmiri chili powder for the paprika, feel free to do so.
