How to make mushroom kurma?
Mushroom Kurma Recipe | Kaalan kurma | with step by step pics & video | Creamy korma recipe. The mushroom, marinated in a masala paste. It is then, cooked along with spices & onion. I love eating pooris with this masala.
Before cooking mushroom, wash the mushrooms gently under running water and pat it dry with a towel. Cut it into big pieces and keep aside. Once you start cooking mushrooms it will start oozing out a lot of water. So I prefer, not to add water while cooking mushrooms. Here I am using white button mushrooms which are now easily available in all super markets.
