Matar Mushroom recipe is very popular and healthy Punjabi main-course recipe which available in every Punjabi dhabas or restaurants. It’s a combination of two main ingredients mushrooms and green peas which cooked in onion tomatoes based gravy. You can serve this curry with rice, naan or chapati and garnished with fresh cream and green coriander leaves. For healthy version, I used par boiled green peas instead of fried peas. As Punjabi cuisines, curries are fully creamy and buttery. So you can fry the green peas along with mushroom in same oil.
