In honour of the Dussehra Indian celebration, we are excited to share an easily put together Indian Rogan Josh to warm up after a busy day. Cook your rogan josh nice and slow to let the flavours mould together and intensify.

Dussehra (Vijaya Dashami, Dasara, or Dashain) is a Hindu festival that celebrates the victory of good over evil. It is a gazetted holiday in India, which is marked on the 10th day of the bright half (Shukla Paksha) of the month of Ashvin (Ashwayuja), according to the Hindu calendar.
