Green Peas Mushroom Curry



Green Peas Mushroom Curry

Simple and breezy curry for chapatis. This is a vegetarian version of my egg and peas curry that I posted earlier.Mushrooms are versatile and can be used to make both mild and spicy curries. I love to cook it just like chicken curry and the subtle mild flavor of mushrooms and the roasted spices complement each other so well. This is a rich and flavorful gravy with coconut milk, tomatoes and cashew nuts. Try this,you will surely love this..

Make a puree of tomatoes and finely chop onions. Dry roast the spice powders in very low flame for 1 minute and set aside.
Heat oil in a pan and stir fry the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper and saute till the juice is reduced and the mushrooms change color to light brown. Drain out and keep aside.
