Chilli Mushroom

Chilli Mushroom is a classic  Chinese dish that is inspired with the Indian ingredients.I have already posted the Chilli Paneer Recipe with paneer and green chilies,however i want to make slight variation for chilly mushroom,so i have added dry red chillies. It makes a great appetizer for parties and very easy to make as well. Before proceeding to the recipe do check the Post how to clean Mushroom in easy way.

It goes well with fried rice and rotis.Do try this delicious Chilly Mushroom Recipe and Enjoy!!!

My Notes:

  • You can try this recipe with tofu or Paneer instead mushroom.

  • If you want to make gravy add the reserved batter and a tbsp water.You can get the thick chilly mushroom gravy.
