Why Mushrooms?

But before we get to the tasty recipe, let’s also list why mushrooms are such a good option. First of all, mushrooms are low in calories, high in antioxidants, and a great source of protein—all of which make them an excellent addition to any diet.

Moreover, they are versatile and can be cooked in various ways, such as sautéing, grilling, baking, or frying. Their earthy taste and meat-like texture make them an ideal alternative to vegetarian dishes. In addition, they work wonders by soaking up the aroma of your dish’s favourite spices and herbs!

Instructions:

• To prepare mushroom masala, take a pack of mushrooms. It is 200 grams

• First, wash them, rub them, and wash them. To wash off the dust now,
• Take the mushrooms out. Do not keep them in water for too long; otherwise, they will absorb the water. Pat dry the mushrooms immediately to clean them more.
• Do not leave them as they are on the plate. Their skin will puff, and they will not stay in the right shape until we have cleaned them properly.
• Now cut them. Cut a piece like this from below, then slice it. Cut the mushrooms into four pieces, or you can slice them like this here,

• We are done. Take a Kadai and heat it
