Mushroom Gravy

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat oil in a pan and add cinnamon stick, cardamom, and cumin seeds. Let roast and, after a few seconds, add finely chopped onions and salt and saute until golden.

2. 2

   Once the onions are golden and tender, add the masalas (spices) as follows: ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, cumin powder, garam masala, coriander powder, red chili powder, green chilies, and curry leaves.

3. 3

   Mix all the ingredients well and then add chopped tomato, and a little bit of water (¼ cup) and cook until everything turns soft (5-6 minutes). You can also add ¼ cup (65 G) tomato paste in place of the 1 tomato to get a very smooth gravy.

4. 4

   Once the oil starts to separate, add the cleaned and sliced mushrooms and mix them well with the masala mixture. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Then, add ¼ cup (or slightly more) required water and cook until the mushrooms are fully done. You should have a gravy-esque consistency: something that can be mixed with rice or accompanied by naan or roti or an equivalent flatbread.

5. 5

   Finally, garnish with chopped coriander leaves and turn off the heat. If desired, add 1 tsp of ghee on the top to enhance the flavor.

6. 6

   Serve with rice or naan. Enjoy!
