I’m exploring the possible way of using homemade onion-tomato masala and came up with this delicious Dhaba-style mushroom masala. If you have onion tomato masala handy most of the recipes can be made in no time. This took only 15 mins to cook from start to end. 5 mins to pressure cook and 10 mins for natural pressure release.
Instead of an electric pressure cooker, you can make this delicious mushroom masala in a kadai or regular pressure cooker too. All the steps are the same. In kadai saute all until the oil oozes out. If using a pressure cooker cook for just 2 whistles. If you have onion tomato masala, your breakfast, lunch, or dinner gets ready in a jiffy.
Check for onion tomato masala here. All the spices and salt in the onion-tomato masala were enough for us. Add salt for mushroom only. Do not add too much salt. Use a generous amount of butter to get a nice flavor. Can be had with roti, paratha, naan, or jeera rice. Now let us see how to prepare this recipe.
