How to make Matar Mushroom Masala
Step 1 Saute onions and spices
Heat oil in a pan or kadhai and add the finely chopped onions and saute till translucent. Add ginger-garlic paste and saute till the raw smell disappears. Then, add the chopped tomatoes and green chillies. Stir well and add turmeric, red chilli, and coriander powder.Stir well and saute till oil separates from onion-tomato masala mixture.
Step 2 Add mushrooms and peas, and cook well
Add the chopped mushrooms and peas. Stir well and saute for 2 to 3 mins. Then, add water and salt as required. Mushrooms will leave water so add accordingly. In case there is too much water even after the peas or mushrooms are cooked, then reduce the water by simmering the matar mushroom curry without a lid for some more minutes till you get the desired consistency.
Cover the pan and cook till the peas are softened. Then, sprinkle garam masala powder. Mix well and serve matar mushroom masala hot with roti or paratha.
