I’m sharing a recipe for Mushroom Capsicum Masala which is a delicious curry. Mushroom and capsicum (green bell pepper) is cooked with blend of spices. This is a post specially for my friend Balaji who requested for a recipe with mushrooms. I’ve cooked the mushrooms and capsicum in tomato gravy and it goes very well with naan, tandoori roti etc. (Indian flat bread).
Mushroom Capsicum Masala is easy to make and my family loves it. It goes well even with rice. So, sharing the recipe and hope you try and share the feedback with me.
