Matar mushroom, easy to make green peas mushroom curry

December 4, 2016 By admin Leave a Comment

Life is not so beautiful if you have empty stomach. It is truly said by the famous poet that full moon is like baked bread for a hungry man. If you are hungry then everything is so dull and ugly. There is no place for romanticism with a empty stomach. So let’s no more talk on hunger rather cook something. MATAR MUSHROOM will be fine for today. What do you say?

I never purchase mushroom from roadside stall because I do not know from where they purchase those. You will have no idea about the source of those things. I do not have any clear idea about mushroom farming & sourcing but I believe that I should buy it from reliable and trustworthy big shops or departmental stores. What do you think? From where do you buy this  very often?

Okay, let’s cook matar mushroom (green peas mushroom curry) now. Main ingredients for matar mushroom are green peas and mushroom. 🙂 I know that I already assumed that. But the tricky part is making the curry here. The base of this curry is prepared with ginger, garlic, onion, and tomato. All these are very basic ingredients to make any Indian curry, nothing special. But this green peas mushroom curry will become special due to process and adding other spices. Red chili powder, turmeric powder, kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves) are used here as spices.

You need 2 medium size onion. Use one to make the paste and chopped another to make fine pieces. So fry ginger, garlic and onion paste together or add ginger paste, garlic paste and onion paste one by one. Fry these till it changes color to light brown. Now add chopped onion and cook with salt for another few minutes.

Now be ready with finely chopped red perfectly ripe tomatoes and add it to frying pan. You have to add red chili powder, turmeric powder and garam masala at this stage and cook till it releases oil.

Now add green peas and chopped mushroom and cook for another few minutes and add few drops lemon juice. Wait, it is still not ready. I need little gravy and want mushroom and green peas to absorb flavor of spices and other ingredients properly. So add enough water according to the quantity of gravy you need. Now start boiling and after few minutes you need to add kasuri methi & some fresh cream which will bring extra shine in your curry and make it more delicious. Now again boil to adjust thickness or quantity of curry. YES we have done matar mushroom dish and it’s so delicious.
