Mushroom Rogan Josh with Rice and Naan
-
Begin by heating 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add 1 chopped onion and 2 minced garlic cloves, cooking until the onion is soft and golden.
-
Add 1 tablespoon of grated ginger, 1 chopped chili (optional for heat), 2 teaspoons of ground cumin, 2 teaspoons of coriander powder, 1 teaspoon of paprika, and 1 teaspoon of turmeric. Stir and cook for another 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.
-
Stir in 500 grams of sliced mushrooms and cook until they start to release their juices, about 5 minutes.
-
Add 1 can of chopped tomatoes and 1 cup of vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and let it cook for about 20-25 minutes until the sauce thickens.
-
In the meantime, prepare the rice by rinsing 1 cup of basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions.
-
Heat readymade naan breads in the oven according to the package instructions or until warm and slightly crispy.
-
Once the mushroom Rogan Josh has thickened, adjust the seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Optionally, stir in 1 tablespoon of garam masala for added depth.
-
Serve the mushroom Rogan Josh hot, alongside the cooked rice and warm naan bread.
