Ammas recipe of Mushroom Masala Curry

 My mother loves to eat and feed mushrooms.. She says it's versatile and takes up the flavour of what is added to it. . I can't agree more.

Everyone in the family loves mushroom.. Especially the Mushroom Pepper Fry that I make often.
Today, my sister in law was to visit me and join us for lunch.. So I decided to make something that's simple.. Naadan and different. This is a super silky gravy and richly coconutty in flavor.. Goes well with plain rice idli,dosa,chapathi,puri....anything!!

Helpline number called... My amma.. She has an answer to all my stupid and not so stupid queries ...and since this recipe is a favourite of her grandkids.. she loves to tell me time and again about it... And me being a dud.. Did not write it down..all times....
Well, this time.. I decided to become a good girl ....I am blogging it.😁😁
