Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
-
What makes a Rogan Josh different from other curries?
Rogan Josh is traditionally defined by its vibrant red color (derived from paprika) and a complex, aromatic spice profile that is heavy on ginger and garlic, rather than just raw chili heat. It is a savory, medium-heat curry with a deep, earthy fragrance.
-
Can I use this for vegetarian dishes?
Absolutely! While Rogan Josh is traditionally made with lamb, this paste is excellent for vegetarian versions. Try using it with roasted cauliflower, chickpeas, potatoes, or paneer for a hearty, meat-free meal.
-
How do I use the paste to get the best results?
Sauté: Fry a medium onion in a little oil until soft.
Sizzle: Add 1/3 of the jar (approx. 2–3 tablespoons) of Patak's Rogan Josh paste and cook for 1–2 minutes to toast the spices and release their full aroma.
Simmer: Add your protein or vegetables (500g) and seal them. Add 100ml of water (or tomato passata for extra richness), cover, and simmer on low until the meat is tender or vegetables are cooked through.
-
Does this need to be kept in the fridge?
Yes, for maximum freshness, store the jar in the refrigerator after opening and consume it within 6 weeks. To keep it at its best, ensure the surface of the paste remains level and use a clean, dry spoon every time you dip into the jar.
