Chettinad mushroom gravy recipe

Hi friends, Today's special is chettinad mushroom gravy. Its spicy curry tastes great with both rice and roti. I made this last night dinner with phulka.

I used button mushroom. You can use any varieties. I always prefer button mushroom because it gets cooked in few minutes also tastes great. I didn't add water for this gravy mushroom itself leave water. If you want dry gravy,don't add more water while grinding masala also reduce tomatoes.

Hope you'll love it and give it a try also don't forget to share your experience with me. Feel free to comment.
