Kadai Mushroom Recipe, How To Make Kadai Mushroom

Stir fried Mushroom in tangy tomato sauce.

Kadai mushroom is a popular punjabi dish in most of the restaurant menu.It is quite easy to make and taste delicious. Kadhai Mushroom is quite similar to the recipe of kadai paneer. You can also make it in a gravy form by adding little extra water but I prefer to have it this way ,slightly dry version.It goes well with rice , roti or kulchas.

I have used kashmiri chili powder for a dark and bright red color instead of using fresh tomatoes you can also use tomato puree but I prefer fresh tomatoes as it gives a nice fresh taste to the curry.

Properly cleaning the mushrooms is important for making any preparations .You can either wash it or wipe it with moist cloth.But I roll mushrooms in dry flour/maida and then peel out the skin and the mushroom came out so white and clean

Addition of cream is optional though it gives a nice body and texture to the curry ,you can also add some milk or cashew paste .This curry is made in indian style wok which is called kadai in india hence the name kadai mushroom.
