Mushroom stir fry


Mushrooms are the power house of protein. Don’t leave any edible mushrooms you finds in your homestead. From my young years I have seen my dad back with mushrooms from our land. So I know to identify the good ones. The one with white gills falls in the edible section. But not all, so care should be taken before cooking. After cleaning the mushrooms, soak it in turmeric water. If any discolouration happens discard them.

I got simply 8 mushrooms and it turned into a delicious stir fry with grated coconut.

Preparation 

After cleaning the mushrooms chop it. 

Onion 1, garlic cloves 4, green chilli 1, all chopped,

Turmeric & cumin powders a pinch each,

Grated coconut 2 tbsp.

Heat coconut oil in a shallow pan, drop in mustard seeds, allow to crackle, drop in broken dried red chilli pieces followed by onion and garlic, sauté till tender, add salt, turmeric and cumin powder, chopped mushrooms. Combine well. Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes, add the coconut, mix well. Stir fry ready. Serve with rice or chapatti.
