Notes
- Adding capsicum is purely optional but adds nice crunch and flavor to this dish.
- You can even add fennel powder and coriander powder instead of crushing. Add 1/2 teaspoon each.
- This is spicy fry so adjust spice powders if you want to reduce hotness.
- Adding freshly ground pepper powder gives a great flavor.
- This pairs well with phulka / white pulaos / or even with plain rice.
- Mushrooms cook faster so don't overcook. No need to add water just saute in oil. Mushrooms will leave out water and that's enough for it to get cooked.
- Make sure to fry in high heat after mushrooms are added.
