Title: Rogan Josh
Categories: Indian Ethnic Entertain Easy Main dish
Servings: 6

2 ea 1″ cubes of ginger chopped 8 ea cloves of garlic
1 1/2 c beef broth 10 T vegetable oil
2 lb lamb or beef stew meat 10 ea whole black cardamoms
2 ea bay leaves 6 ea whole cloves
10 ea whole peppercorns 1 ea 1″ stick cinnamon
2 ea medium onions 1 t ground coriander
2 t ground black cumin 4 t red paprika
1/2 t cayenne pepper 1 1/4 t salt
6 T plain yogurt 1/4 t garam masala
1 x black pepper

Put the ginger, garlic, and 4 tablespoons water in blender. Blend well
until you have a smooth paste.
Heat the oil in a wok to medium high heat. Brown the meat cubes in
several batches and set to one side. Put the cardamom, bay leaves,
cloves, peppercorns, and cinnamon into the same hot oil. Stir once and
wait until the cloves swell and the bay leaves begin to take on color.
Now put in the onions. Stir and fry for about 5 minutes or until the
onions turn a medium brown color. Put in the ginger garlic paste and
stir for 30 seconds. Add the fried meat cubes and juices. Stir for 30
seconds. Now put in 1/6 of the yoghurt. Stir and fry for 30
seconds or until the yoghurt is well blended. Add the remaining
yoghurt, a tablespoon at a time, in the same way. Stir and fry for
another 3-4 minutes.
Now add the rest of the broth (a little more for beef than lamb). Bring
the contents of the pot to a boil, scraping in all browned spices on the
sides and bottom of the pot. Cover, turn heat to low and simmer for
about an hour if lamb and two if beef. Every 10 minutes or so, give the
meat a good stir. When the meat is tender, take off the lid, turn the
heat up to medium and boil away some of the liquid. You should end up
with a tender meat in a thick, reddish brown sauce. All the fat that
collects in the pot may be spooned off the top. Sprinkle the garam
masala and black pepper over the meat before you serve and mix them in.

——– ———— ——————————–
5 Large Thai dried chilies *
1/2 ts Chopped coriander roots **
1 t Minced Galanga (Kha) or ging
1 t Kaffir lime peel or lime zes
2 tb Minced garlic
2 tb Minced red onions

2 ts Cilantro leaves
1/2 c Oil for frying
—–DIPPING SAUCE—–
2 Medium chilies minced
2 ts Salt
4 tb Sugar
4 tb Vinegar

* Soak in hot water until soft ** Omit if not
available *** Squeeze out all the water DIRECTIONS:
Using a mortar and pestle or a blender. Puree chilies,
coriander roots, Galanga, lime peel, garlic, onions
and shrimp paste. Add soy beans and rice flour and
blend well. Transfer the soy bean mixture to a bowl
and add eggs, Kaffir lime leaves, cilantro leaves and
fish sauce and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon
until well blended. Heat oil in a large flat bottom
fry pan over medium heat. Meanwhile, dip hands in
water and form the soy bean mixture into patties,
about 1-1/2 inch in diameter each. Fry until well done
and golden brown. Drain the oil on paper towels. Serve
hot with dipping sauce. Dipping Sauce ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heat salt, sugar and vinegar in a small saucepan over
low heat until the salt and sugar is dissolved. Cool a
bit, add chilies and stir to mix well. NOTE: The
mixture must be on the dry side. If the mixture is
too soggy it won’t be crispy when fried. The
solution
would be to lay the patties out on a cookie sheet
to
air dry about 15 minutes or so before frying.
