Thought of making chettinad mushroom fry today but as my luck would have it, the power went off,,, so started off with the mushroom fry with no solid recipe in mind and it did turn out well...

Yummy No-recipe Mushroom Fry:

1. Clean n slice the mushrooms- 1 pack white button mushrooms
2. Heat 1 tbsp oil. Add 1/2 tsp saunf(sombu), pattai-1 piece, 1 each of krambu and elaichi
3. Once flavourful, add 1 sliced onion, 2 cloves garlic and saute till golden.
4. Add in one small tomato chopped, turmeric pwd, salt, chilly pwd. Search for garam masala and find the packet to be empty . Think... look for KK masala and find no sign of it in the pantry:sigh:
Find a packet of aachi sambar powder. Add 1/4 tsp of it and saute till the tomato turns pulpy.
5. Add the mushroom and mix well, sprinkle lil water and cover with a lid and cook till 3/4th done.
6. . Did a taste tes and found it to be spicy.
7. Grate 1-2 tbsp of coconut and add it to the curry and saute till dry.
8. Did a taste test... still a lil spicy.
9. Add some coconut oil/any vegetable oil and curry leaves and mix well.
10. Taste test... yummm!!!...
11. Take in a plate and taste test a few more pieces...
12. Serve the rest...Goes well mixed with plain rice, curd rice as well as bread. I tried all these combinations today. I'm sure it'll taste good when made into a dosa /chapathi roll.
