Chicken Rogan Josh

 
In Chennai once we went in a restaurant where we had a nice Mutton Rogan josh but after that hardly I had that. Yesterday when I called my elder sister she told me that she just finished Mutton Rogan Josh for her weekend guests. After that I feel like to have that now only. But here very difficult to get good mutton and my husband doesn’t like Lamb. So what to do I started thinking and finally came to an end and prepared Chicken Rogan Josh. Rogan Josh is a authentic Kasmiri Dish. I searched lots of web in Google and finally followed Sanjeev Kapoors Mutton Rogan josh recipe, just istead of mutton I used chicken. And I made few changes just because it’s Chicken. And the dish turned out really superb.


 
To satisfy our taste buds any how we find out the alternative and after finish the cooking we realize that we made something good, And that’s satisfy ourselves.  After having the dish my hubby dear was so happy because he told me to cook Mutton Rogan Josh in our next Vacation in Kolkata. But friends seriously I am telling you this one is really different.
