Mushroom Curry



Mushroom is my favourite and there are many ways I love to have them.
This is a simple mushroom curry which is easy to make and goes well with chapathi, naan, parotta, dosa and even rice if you like.
Just make sure you buy fresh mushrooms and don't buy and keep it in fridge for more than 2 days.
Check the expiry date on the label also to be sure because sometimes it is difficult to know when the mushrooms have gone bad.
Here's my recipe for a simple mushroom curry.

Ingredients:
Mushroom 250 gm
Tomato 2 medium
Mustard seeds 1 tsp
Turmeric Poder 1/4 tsp
Corriander Leaves
