Tawa Mushroom
Tawa Mushroom
Tawa mushroom recipe with step by step photos – a delicious recipe of mushroom tawa masala where button mushrooms are cooked in a spiced onion-tomato based gravy.
Tawa in hindi means a concave shaped pan. Now food cooked in tawa tastes different than the food cooked in a kadai or handi. While cooking, the veggies cook as well as caramelize faster in a tawa and thus that caramelized taste is felt in the dish. For best taste, I would suggest to make this recipe in a tawa.
If you do not have a tawa, then the next best option is to use a shallow frying pan. if you use a tawa, then do use a medium or large tawa, so that the food does not spill from the sides while cooking.
On occasions, I prepare this tawa mushroom. the recipe I follow is the same as that of the Paneer tawa masala, I had posted before. Apart from chopping mushrooms, onions, capsicum and tomatoes, there is no other prep work in this recipe. Thus easy and quick to prepare and makes for a very good side dish with chapatis. It can also be packed in the tiffin-box.
Most of the times I make tawa mushroom with chapatis and accompany a side salad. You can even serve mushroom masala as a side dish with rice and dal. You can also have tawa mushroom with bread or paratha or naan or pav.
