3-4 drops of lemon for taste
Salt To Taste
Preparation:
-Clean, wash and cut the mushrooms into medium pieces and chop onions/tomatoes/ginger/garlic finely.
-Heat oil in pan.
-Saute cumin seeds, onions, ginger and garlic, green chillies and salt till golden brown.
-Add tomatoes, chilli powder and turmeric. Cook till tender.
– Add cream (or water/milk)
-Add the mattar (green peas) and mushrooms and cook for 5 mins (or till the peas are fully cooked.)
Once done, enjoy this delicious mushroom curry with Naan, Roti or Rice.
This recipe looks great and I hope to try it real soon, but how much milk/cream do you use? I can’t see the quantity mentioned in the recipe.
Thanks
Great question Jacqui 🙂 If you use cream, add 1/4 to 1/4 of a cup and if using milk ( 1/2 a cup to a cup perhaps.) this is only for 2-3 people. If you are making it in bulk, double the quantities.
LOVE your mushrooms ! When pploee ask your children what’s your job, do they answer you’re a magician ? Seven kids … three possibilities : drink the while bottle, give each of them a drop of wine or change them into mushrooms 😀 Sorry sweet kids, I’m a silly girl !
