Notes:
* Following an Alton Brown tip, we used a frozen carrot, cauliflower and broccoli product that can be micro waved in the unopened bag. In 2-2½ minutes on high, they cook a little less than half and stay crisp, cutting the final prep time down.
Directions:
Convert Rogan Josh powder into paste by mixing powder with equal parts water and oil. In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp. olive oil or ghee over medium/high heat. If sautéing veggies, do so now and set aside. If using frozen, pop in microwave for 2-2½ minutes. Next, brown your choice of meat on both sides and strain in a colander and set aside. Lower heat to medium, add remaining ghee or oil, sautéed onions and stir. Next, add veggies and stir in the Rogan Josh paste. Cook for 2-3 minutes stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and stir in browned meat, sea salt, water and yogurt. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove cover and taste; adjust seasoning as desired (for more heat, sprinkle in some cayenne, if too spicy, you may want to consider adding more yogurt, for more spice, add cayenne). Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
Serving Suggestions:
Over rice with chopped cilantro and pita, tortilla, chapati or naan bread.
