Mushroom Masala Curry

Mushroom Masala Curry Recipe

Ingredients:

• 200 gm Mushroom 

• 4 finely chopped Onions 

• 1 cup Tomato puree 

• 1 tbsp Red chili powder 

• 1 tsp Coriander powder 

• 2 tsp Besan 

• 1 tsp Ginger-Garlic paste 

• 1 Cinnamon stick 

• 2 Green cardamom • 2 Peppercorns • 2 Cloves 

• 1 tbsp Kitchen king masala 

• 1 tsp Kasuri methi 

• Salt to taste 

• 4~5 tsp Butter 

Method: 

Wash mushrooms really good and cut them. Heat up butter in a pan. You can use ghee instead of butter or combination of ghee & oil. Try to use ghee or butter which give nice consistency. When butter melts add cinnamon, green cardamom, peppercorns, cloves and fry for just about a minute.

Add finely chopped onion and fry on medium heat until it turns nice and soft for about 10-12 minutes. 

It should get nice golden color. Take the onion aside in the pan and add besan. Fry besan for about 4-5 minutes until its raw smell is removed. You can roast the besan before hand and add it to onion when it is fried. 

Mix besan with onion and add tomato puree, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, garam masala, coriander powder and mix well. Cook on medium heat for about 7-8 minutes until spices release oil. When spices begin to release oil add mushroom and mix well. Add about 1/2 cup hot water, salt to taste and mix well.

Cover and cook on medium heat for about 7-minutes. Remove the lid and mix well once more. Crush kasuri methi with hands and add. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes. 

Turn off the gas and mushroom masala is already. You can have this mushroom masala with naan, paratha, chapatti, fulka. If you don’t like only mushrooms then you can combine these with paneer or green peas or potato.
