Spicy Mushroom Curry

Mushroom was not eaten by my family before marraige as it was considered non-vegetarian, i always loved to taste mushroom curry with my friends outside, but after marraige my hubby encouraged me to cook mushroom at home so i started browsing the net and came across this recipe.

I tried it a couple of times and everybody liked it specially my hubby. This recipe contains a lot of ingredients which made me feel it is very complicated but it wasnt difficult. The special flavor of this curry is the tempering made with crushed garlic,pepper and jeera. This curry can be had with rice or rotis.

Try it out and you wouldnt be disappointed !!

Ingredient:

250gm chopped mushroom (lengthwise)
1 cup chopped onions
1 cup chopped tomatoes
1 tbsp garlic ginger paste
2 chopped chillis
2 springs curry leaves (optional)
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1 bay leaf
2 cardamom
2 cloves
5 black pepper
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp oil
salt to taste

For tempering
1 tbsp butter / oil for vegans
4 garlic cloves
1/4 tsp cumin seeds
6-7 black pepper
1/2 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
2 tbsp chopped coriander (cilantro)
1/2 tsp chilli powder

Cooking Procedure:

Heat oil in a deep bottom pan and add bay leaves,cardomon,clove,black pepper and fry for 1 min

Add cumin seeds and fry till it splutter

Add onions and keep stiring and add garlic ginger paste, chopped chillies, curry leaves, turmeric powder and salt

Once the onion is golden brown add tomato fry till it becomes soft

Add mushrooms stir nicely until all the paste blends with the mushrooms

Add 1 cup water and stir for one minute, cover and let it cook in medium flame

While the mushroom cooks ,start preparing the tempering

For tempering crush black pepper, garlic and cumin seeds together and keep aside

In another wide pan melt butter then add these crushed ingredients and fry for a min

Then add coriander leaves, chilli powder, cumin powder and coriander powder to this pan and just stir for 1/2 a min
