How to Make Mushroom Bhaji

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, and fry until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
  2. Lower the heat to medium-low. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste), 1 teaspoon coriander powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder.
  3. Stir-fry the spices for 5 minutes, adding 1-2 tablespoons of water if needed to prevent sticking.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup of tomato puree. Mix well and add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms.
  5. Stir until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  6. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of water over the mixture, cover the pan, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender.
  7. Garnish with fresh cilantro (optional) and serve hot alongside your favorite curry.
