Mushroom Capsicum
This recipe of mine has a slight Chinese flavour. It pretty easy to make and tasty too.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup Mushroom thoroughly rinsed and quartered, cut each mushroom into 4 equal pieces
- 1 cup Onion almost of the same size as the quartered mushrooms, cut into small cubes
- 1 cup Capsicum cut into thin small strips like 1 inch of a noodle strand
- 3 tsp Tomato paste The condensed deep red paste that you get in bottled or juice-packeted form.
- Ginger garlic paste - 3 tsp
- 1 1/2 tbsp Soya sauce
- 1 tsp Vinegar can be avoided for people who dislike a sour flavour
- 3 tbsp Cooking oil
- Black pepper powder As reqd
- Salt As reqd
Instructions
- Reduce the flame from high to medium at this point of time.
- :- The flame may be increased now since Chinese dishes prefer stir frying their vegetables.
- When the onions turn sand brown and slightly transparent, add in the mushrooms.
- Put required amount of black pepper, soya sauce, vinegar and tomato paste. Stir well.
- Close the lid of the pan and allow the mushrooms to get cooked for 10 mins on medium flame.
- Open the lid and then add the sliced capsicum.
- Add required amount of salt.
- :- Please keep in mind that soya sauce does contain salt in it.
- Stir the masala on high flame for about 3 mins.
- Turn the stove off, tranfer it to a bowl and garnish as per wish...:)
- :- Do let me know your suggestions and comments. Thank you.
- Note : (1) I haven`t tried substituting readymade tomato paste with home-made tomato puree. Hence, wouldn`t recommend home-made tomato puree. The former is more condensed, deep coloured and well-flavoured. (2) The mushrooms may be fresh or tinned. (3) Dear readers, please note that mushrooms could be of harm to certain people. My Grandfather and I for instance, are allergic to mushrooms. But I seriously! love them though
