SPICY MUSHROOM CURRY

I am happy to be back with some interesting posts after a long gap.I have been following many blogs
all these months and almost  trying a new recipe daily.I need to tell, it was such a pleasure trying different cuisine and all the tried recipes came out very well. Thanks to all the bloggers.




Today i feel like sharing a recipe which goes very well as a side dish for roti and also any type of rice item.
Mushroom is liked by all, specially the children.
Since it was a sunday and a time for the family to have lunch together,myself and my daughter
decided to make different types of side dishes for pulkas.It was nice when we shared the cooking work too.
We made three different combination dishes.The first one a dal item, next combination of vegetables with a healthy version and unique blend of vegetables,the last one a spicy mushroom curry which I made for the first time.I am going to share the recipe with you all.
I followed the recipe which i viewed in a urdu channel and it was very tempting.
For the Dal recipe i followed spicy cabbage dal posted by Indian cuisine and for the korma i followed padhu's kitchen with the variation in the vegetables.We ommited potato,carrot, peas and cauliflower instead used zucchini,broccoli,moong sprouts and brussel sprouts.As a result we got a green colour kurma.
In  the end the three dishes were in yellow, green and red colour.





The recipe for the mushroom is here.
