Rogan Josh
Rogan josh is a staple of Kashmiri cuisine and is one of the main dishes of the Kashmiri multi-course meal (the "Wazwan"). The dish was originally brought to Kashmir by the Mughals, whose cuisine was in turn influenced by Persian cuisine.
The unrelenting summer heat of the Indian plains took the Mughals
frequently to Kashmir, which has a cooler climate because of its
elevation and latitude
