Chilli Mushrooms

One of my favorite Indian restaurants has a 5 star dish called Mushroom Chilli. I’ll attempt to recreate here

‘A simple healthy stir fry recipe that’s perfect for a home preparation. This is almost same as restaurant style popular Indo chinese chilli mushroom except I’ll not deep fry the mushrooms.

The restaurant version batters and deep fries the mushrooms then tosses with a glorious sauce. But the recipe shared here is stir fried. I’ll use a generous amount of olive oil that gives a great flavor and taste.
