Mushroom Masala Quick Recipe

by 1 Comment

We all need quick recipes these days.

This is one of the quickest recipes I made one day as a side dish to poori. Came out good so thought will share it.

Typing a recipe after 45 days or so. My admin has been very kind enough to maintain my social media with all the content I gave her and responding timely on her messages. Thanks to her! She pushes me to provide her content on a timely manner when I hide from social media. I owe you a lunch, Girl!

Been some tough days that I can’t express with everything happening. Then, last few days was even more worse with Covid. Recovering…

Heard from my neighbor on Mercury Retrograde that this is all happening as Universe is telling me something. People who knows me know I don’t believe in all this.. But this is so strong with every day and nothing seems to work out! I am fed up and May be this is universe. At this point, no use blaming the universe and it is just me.

whatever… Life will go on… I will breathe like everybody else! 🙂

MushroomPeasMasala

 

Mushrooms are simmered in spicy & delicious Indian gravy !

It was drafted for a long time in my list to post, thought this is the right time to post it because I did not pretty much cook anything for past one week. I made baigan bartha, but did not force myself to take pictures. I always have couple of recipes in my draft except that I have to type the story or description to it. The masalas in this mushroom are finger licking good. Mushrooms and eggs are the best friend for bachelor cooking I guess, easy to make it for a side dish. So, if you wanted to make it special with a comfort lunch without much of work and grocery shopping then go for this!

I am a vegetarian and I love mushrooms. I cook mushrooms at least once a week. Tried sometime back to be vegan for a week, and it was hard actually. I had a tough time without yogurt and cheese. Probably will try it again sometime :D. Just want to check if I can do it…!

As a matter of fact, this is a vegan curry. You can skip peas and replace with any veggie you want to add.

I have a collection of my favorite mushroom recipes. Few I would mention are Mushroom peanut salan, Paneer Mushroom bell pepper gravy,  Mushroom Biryani, Vegan tofu mushroom dumpling potstickers Garlic Creamy mushroom spaghetti, Mushroom cutlet

If you make a some restaurant style Biryani, pulao for this mushroom curry, that’s a complete lunch. Even it tastes great with  plain rice or Indian bread.

When I just toss mushrooms with garlic and butter, I can have the whole bowl.  that garlic and butter are a deadly combination to mushroom. It elevates the mushroom taste. So I add them to my quesadilla, curries, white curry, tacos, pasta, pizza and everything now. I cook a lot of mushroom recipes; it is one of the best vegetarian side dish curries. It is a high protein ingredient in our food. 

Whenever I buy mushrooms, I try to cook them in 2-3 days. Fresh mushrooms are always firm to the touch, have a slightly shiny surface and have a uniform colour. Sometimes we would see some particles of peat moss on some of the mushrooms, just brush off prior to use, it is harmless.

Creamy Mushrooms and greens on Toast

by 2 Comments

MushroomToast-4-2Classic combo of creamy mushrooms, garlic and parsley piled onto toast. On the table in 10 minutes!

Mushrooms on toast are usually a classic British dish. It is usually served for breakfast or evening snack with tea or even for a light supper. I love this recipe because of its simplicity, just sautéed mushrooms with some parsley and dumped over on toasted bread.  Many skip onion/shallots to it. But I wanted to make it simple and perfect and want to feel the taste of the beautiful mushrooms with shallots. Mushrooms cooked for around 7 minutes so they release their juices and then cooked with cream and parsley, when placed over the toast it absorbs the delicious mushroom juices.

MushroomToast-8

I made this on a weekend for me and I was totally happy with a glass of juice and some fruits! It is perfect for breakfast or brunch. Simple and I was totally satisfied.  As I always mention, mushrooms with garlic and butter is so perfect! They are made for each other 😀 I am not a great mushroom lover. But when I just toss them with garlic and butter, I can have the whole bowl. 😀 that garlic and butter is a deadly combination to mushroom. It elevates the mushroom taste. So I add them to my quesadilla, curries, white curry, tacos, pasta, pizza and everything now. I just had the whole plate 🙂 and made another toast and had one more! It was so tasty!!! I am sure kids would love this 🙂 and as a grown kid 😀 we ourselves would just drool when we see the end result! The best thing about this recipe is mushroom topping can be made several hours even overnight and refrigerated. When you’re ready to serve, reheat the mushrooms over low heat and top on the toast and serve.

Vegan Note: Use vegan creams made from soy milk, use the cashew cheese instead of normal cheese and avoid the butter!
