Instructions
- Rinse the mushrooms in warm salted water, gently scrubbing the surface to remove impurities. Pat them dry with a napkin or paper towel.
- Slightly trim the tip of the mushroom stem. If the mushrooms are large, cut them into quarters; otherwise, slice them in half. Fry them in oil over low heat until golden, then set them aside
- Combine onions, tomato, garlic, ginger, and chillies in a blender or food processor and blend them into a paste/puree.
- Heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds. Sauté until they turn aromatic. Add the above-prepared paste and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raw smell disappears.
- Add all the spices and cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring continuously until well combined and aromatic. Stir in the fried mushrooms and sauté for 1–2 minutes. Then, add the green peas and cook on low heat for another 2–3 minutes.
- Add water depending on the desired consistency. Mix well to combine all the flavors. Cover the pan with a lid and cook on low heat for 7-10 minutes, allowing the mushrooms and peas to soften and absorb the masala flavors. Stir occasionally.
- Garnish with cilantro leaves and serve warm mushrooms peas masala with bread or rice!
Notes
- Do not soak mushrooms too long, as they quickly absorb water and become soggy.
- Dry mushrooms thoroughly before cooking to avoid excess moisture in the dish.
- If you use fresh peas, rinse them well under running water before adding them.
- Fry mushrooms on low heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
- Use warm water to adjust the curry’s consistency if required.
