Green mushroom curry is my own creation. Mint, coriander leaves and green chillies give a green colour to the curry so hence I named it green mushroom curry. It goes well with roti, naan, parotta, idiyappam.

Mushrooms are not vegetables but they provide several important nutrients. To get the nutritional benefit of mushroom it has to be cooked. It’s a good source of calcium, fiber, selenium, protein, iron, vitamin C, vitamin D, potassium and phosphorus. It’s low in calories, helps in fighting cancer, boosts immune system and prevents heart disease.

Button mushroom is the most common variety of mushroom consumed all over the world. White button mushroom is sold as fresh mushroom or is canned and used for soups, sauces and other food product.

In a mortar and pestle make a paste of fennel seeds, cumin seeds, carom seeds and garlic. Keep it aside.

Heat a frying pan, add roughly chopped onions and saute till it becomes transparent. Add coriander powder and saute till the raw smell disappears on low heat, make sure it doesn’t burn. Turn off the heat, let it cool down.

In a blender blend the above onions, green chillies, cashews, coconut, coriander leaves, mint leaves and little water.

Heat a deep frying pan add 2 tsp oil. Add the paste pounded in the mortar and pestle ( fennel,garlic…), Saute for a minute or two on low heat. Add the mushrooms, season with salt cover and cook on low heat. Mushroom will release is own juice. Cook for five minutes.
