A simple yet popular dish on every Indian restaurant menu is the mushroom masala. Lightly spiced in a creamy tomato-yogurt gravy in less than 20 minutes. It makes a perfect side dish or a main course for a vegetarian feast.
Wipe mushrooms with a damp cloth. You can chop the mushrooms or keep the small-size ones whole, as I have done here.
Add 1 tbsp oil to a saute pan and add mushrooms. Sprinkle some salt and cook mushrooms on medium-high until they release their juices and dry again. (about 3 to 5 mins). Remove from the pan and set aside.
Saute
In a saute pan on medium-low heat, add the remaining oil, saute onions, garlic, and ginger, until the onions are translucent; about 2 minutes.
Then, add the tomato paste and curry powder. Saute for another minute until fragrant.
Add yogurt and the garam masala. Followed by the mushrooms and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
Adjust the consistency of gravy - adding a few tablespoons of water if necessary.
Sprinkle with fresh herbs, cilantro, or parsley.
Enjoy!
