There are few mushroom recipes available in this blog which i had shared earlier this blog. This is Mushroom masala goes well with chappati,naan and rice. I make many mushroom gravies and this is the best i can say as this very delicious the addition of coconut makes it more creamier.
This is similar to the chettinad chicken recipe which i had shared earlier but i adjusted few ingredients in this. In this recipe i roasted all the spices with coconut and blended to smooth.
Poppy seed adds nice flavor to the dish but if it not available you can use cashew nuts instead.
Please find all my other side dish recipes in my blog.
