I removed the reference to the horse called Rogan Josh because this page is about the dish. If details of the horse warrant an article, the standard place to put it is in its own article, eg. Rogan Josh (horse), and then put a disambiguation tag on this page. Remy B 05:41, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

'Roghan' (روغن)means 'oil' in Persian and Urdu, and that seems a more likely origin for the first part of the name, given that red in Hindi & Urdu is 'Lal', and in Persian 'surkh' or 'qermez'. Sikandarji 08:04, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Madhur Jaffrey's recipe and many others found on the internet omit the tomatoes. Google searches for "rogan josh tomato" and "rogan josh -tomato" suggest that tomatoes are not often included (27k vs 393k hits). Does anyone know what the story is on this? (Jaffrey's recipe is quite tasty, btw, although she tends to tone down the heat.) Steve Dunham 00:21, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
