Ingredients
- 250 grams mushrooms cleaned and sliced
- 1 cup plain yogurt dahi, whisked until smooth
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ginger garlic paste
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1 tablespoon oil vegetable or mustard oil
- Salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon mixed masala powder

Instructions
Start By Sauteing The Base:
- Heat some oil in a pan over medium heat. Toss in finely chopped onions and cook them until they turn a nice golden brown. Then add the ginger garlic paste and cook it for another minute or two until you can smell that lovely aroma.
Add The Spices And Veggies:
- Sprinkle in turmeric, coriander powder, and a pinch of salt. Give everything a good stir. Now add the sliced mushrooms and green peas. Cook them together for about 5 to 7 minutes, until the mushrooms start to soften and release their juices.
Mix In The Yogurt:
- Turn the heat down to low and slowly pour in the whisked yogurt, stirring constantly so it doesn’t curdle. Add your mixed masala powder and blend it all well.
Let It Simmer And Enjoy:
- Let the whole thing cook gently on low for another 5 to 7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and all the flavours come together. Taste and adjust the salt if needed. Serve it warm with rice or roti.
