Directions

  1. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add cinnamon, cumin seeds, green cardamom, cloves, star anise, and bay leaf. Stir to allow oil to absorb flavors and aroma, about 30 seconds.

  2. Stir in onion and saute until it becomes slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Stir in ginger-garlic paste until smell diminishes, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes and stir for 3 to 4 minutes. Add coriander powder, turmeric, and chili powder. Allow sauce to reduce, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in salt. Add mushrooms and stir until coated with sauce.

  3. Pour in water and allow mushrooms to cook in sauce until slightly soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in cashew powder and garam masala and let cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes. Break kasoori methi into fine pieces and stir into meal, remove from heat, and serve.

Recipe Note

Mushroom masala is a classic Indian dish that is flavorful, warming, and simple to make. It is also known as \"mushroom masala curry\" or \"mushroom curry\". This recipe yields a curry that is pretty delicious over a bed of rice, accompanied by chapati, or even by itself. This is a purely vegetarian meal that is also vegan-friendly.
