Mushroom Curry / Mushroom Gravy


Am glad to share this lip smacking mushroom recipe with you!!

This is basically mushrooms floating in gravy made from onion, tomato puree & masala. To this cashew nut powder is added to make the taste rich and final addition of milk makes it richer! This Curry goes well with hot chappati/phulka/roti. People at home / Kids at home might ask you this question "Why should I have mushroom in my diet?" here is the answer...
Mushroom are rich in vitamin B and D, it also provide several minerals that may be difficult to obtain in the diet, such as selenium, potassium, copper, iron, and phosphorus. Mushrooms decreases the risk of obesity and overall mortality, diabetes, heart disease and promotes a healthy complexion and hair, increased energy, and overall lower weight.
You can have mushroom for all these health benefits or just because it’s the only stuff left in your refrigerator
Try this dish and lemme know if it made your day brighter:) Happy cooking! Cheers!
