How to make Mushroom Ghee Roast Recipe
To begin making the Mushroom Ghee Roast Recipe, we will first marinate the mushrooms.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mushrooms, along with the yogurt, turmeric powder and lemon juice.
Mix well and set aside for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Heat a skillet on medium heat, to this add the, dry red chillies, peppercorns, cloves, methi seeds, coriander seeds and cumin seeds.
Dry roast for about 4-6 minutes, or until the aroma of the spices wafts in the air.
Turn off the flame and allow the spices to cool down.
Into the mixer jar, add the roasted spices, garlic cloves, and tamarind paste, grind into a smooth paste, using some water.
Transfer the ghee roast masala into a bowl and set aside.
Heat a kadai, on medium flame, to this add the ghee. Once the ghee has melted add the curry leaves.
When the curry leaves splutter, add in the marinated mushrooms along with the marinade and cook on medium-high heat.
The mushrooms will release a lot of water, allow them to cook in that water until the water is almost evaporated and the mushrooms are well done.
Now add salt, the freshly ground ghee roast masala, jaggery and toss it into the mushrooms.
Continue to cook the Mushroom Ghee Roast Masala for about a minute or two longer and turn off the flame. Check the salt and spices and adjust to taste.
Transfer the Mushroom Ghee Roast Masala to a serving bowl and serve hot.
