Mushroom is something we have once in every week, in various styles! 😉 Its mostly the simple dishes that I end up making.

Recently, a friend of mine had asked for a simple mushroom recipe to start with. She failed miserably in that attempt. That pushed me to put this post up.

Few things  about mushroom :

  • Mushroom is bland! yes, you heard it right! It’s the other ingredients which deliver the taste to the mushroom dish.
  • But this doesn’t mean you have to dump as my ingredients into it
  • Mushroom oozes a lot of water,  wait until the whole is oozed and absorbed
  • It literally takes less time to cook, so do not overcook mushrooms.
  • If using button mushrooms, go for white, sturdy ones. Avoid using, if there is discolored or very spongy
  • Always buy mushroom from trusted sources.

P.S: Hereafter, You may not find me regular in this space, but you can always expect me with the easiest recipes 😀
