Methi Mattar Mushroom Malai

This dish is a little modified than what you normally get in the restaurants. Ihave the added twist of also having mushrooms in it. One reason I tried out this dish was to impress my would be wife as it is one of here favourite dishes! It came out really well! I suggest you eat this with warm chapatis.


Ingredients:

  • Green Peas - 2 cups
  • Sliced Mushrooms - 1 cup
  • Dry Fenugreek leaves (kasoori Methi) - 1/4 cup
  • Fresh cream - 1/2 cup
  • Cumin - 1 tsp
  • Coriander powder - 1 and 1/2 tsp
  • turmeric - 1/4 tsp
  • Garam masala - 1 tsp
  • Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
  • salt - 1 tsp (to taste)
  • ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
  • Onions - 1 chopped

Method

Heat oil in a wok and add cumin. When it starts sputtering add the chopped onions. Fry the onions till they become translucent. Add the ginger garlic paste and fry along with the onions for a minute before adding the coriander powder, turmeric, garam masala, red chilli powder and salt. Now add the mushroom and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the green peas, the dry fenugreek leaves and a cup of water and cook for 5 minutes covered on medium heat. Boil till you get a thick gravy. When it comes to a boil add the fresh cream and let it cook for another minute.
