Mushroom Embassy

I got this recipe from nitha mehta's book but she had done it with chicken, but i wanted to do a vegetarian version of it so i did it with mushrooms, here i have used chestnut mushrooms, if you dont find it then you can use any other type as well...the gravy was just awesome, more than what i expected!!!!


Ingredients

250 gms chestnut mushrooms cut into quarter

1 veg stock cube

1 cup hot water

1 tbsp maida /Plain flour

2 tbsp butter

1/2 tsp oil

2 green chilli sliced

1 tsp finely chopped ginger

10-12 flakes of garlic finely chopped

1 onion finely chopped

1 big tomato finely chopped

1 tbsp coriander leaves finely chopped + for garnishing

1 1/2 cup milk

1 tsp tomato ketchup

Salt to taste

Method
  • In a bowl add veg stock cube along with hot water and Maida and mix it well and keep aside
  • Heat oil and 1 tbsp butter in a pan, add green chilli, ginger, garlic and fry till golden brown
  • Add onion and fry till light brown and then add tomato and fry well till half mashed
  • Add coriander leaves , mix it well and then the veg stock mix and bring it to a boil
  • Then add milk and stir and bring it to a boil and then add ketchup and cook till its semi thick and add salt and keep aside
  • In another pan add 1 tbsp butter and add mushrooms and fry on a high flame for 4-5 min and then add this to the gravy, garnish it with coriander leaves and serve hot

  87. Hey what is the substitute for stock cube??
    BTW very nice & innovative blog...

    ReplyDelete
  88. Hi, you can use fresh stock instead of cubes, heres the recipe,
    Ingredients

    1/2 cup roughly chopped cabbage
    1/2 cup roughly chopped carrots
    1/4 cup chopped celery
    2 tbsp spring onions, chopped
    3 to 4 cauliflower florets

    Method

    1. Boil all the vegetables in 6 cups of water and simmer over a medium flame for 15 to 20 minutes, till it reduces to about 4 ½ cups.
    2. Allow the vegetables to settle at the bottom of the vessel and pour out the stock. Discard the vegetables.
    3. Use as required.

    I hope its useful to you...and do visit again...
