How to Make Beef Rogan Josh
- Melt 2 tablespoons of ghee in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 inch minced ginger, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste), 1 teaspoon coriander powder, and 1 teaspoon cumin powder. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Increase the heat to medium-high. Add 1.5 lbs beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes. Brown the beef on all sides, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 large onion, chopped, and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 cup plain yogurt, and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a slow boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35-40 minutes, or until the beef is very tender. Stir occasionally.
- While the beef simmers, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of ghee in a small pan. Add 2 teaspoons garam masala and stir well.
- Pour the garam masala ghee mixture over the beef. Stir to combine.
- Serve hot with basmati rice or naan bread. Garnish with fresh cilantro (optional).
