Mushroom Masala Recipe / Chettinad Mushroom Masala Recipe / Spicy Mushroom Gravy Recipe

 

Today's recipe is a spicy, flavor rich and easy to make Chettinad Style Mushroom Masala Recipe. Chettinad Cuisine includes lots of spices like Cinnamon, clove, pepper corns, fennel seeds, star anise and the cooking will not be completed without Chinna Vengayam/Pearl Onion addition. I used almost all the spices except Poppy seeds & coconut in this gravy. I recreated this recipe following my Chettinad Style Vazhakka Varuval.  This Mushroom Masala makes a great side dish for Dosa, Chapati, Parotta, Naan and even with plain rice. We had it with Homemade Tandoori Rotis.

Chinese Veg Fried Rice / Vegetable Fried Rice - Chinese Restaurant Style

We love Chinese Food - Fried Rice, Broccoli in Hot Garlic Sauce, Spring Rolls, Garlic Chicken, Tofu Coconut Curry and veg noodles are our most fav and constant restaurant order. Once in a month we used to go Chinese Restaurants  - Panda Hut, P.F. Chang's China Bistro. Even my kids love this Chinese Fried Rice. Its my long time wish to recreate their Fried Rice & Broccoli in Hot sauce. And finally made it last weekend for our lunch. Traditionally Chinese Fried Rice are made with a day or two days old Cooked Rice(cold Rice) and also in restaurants they use Jasmine/Long grain rice but I used Basmati Rice. Except the rice flavor n taste, got the 90% Restaurants' Fried rice taste, texture and flavor.

Mushroom Pepper Masala - It's Hot !!!

             This Wednesday is special again since its Blog Hop Wednesday,nothing but a wonderful event by Radhika . Its a great opportunity to meet more bloggers and the best thing of this event is to try out some recipe from the paired blogger. Its really more fun u know, getting more friends, learning some interesting and new things from their blog and above all trying their own recipe. It didn't stop with that alone, we should post that tried and tasted recipe on every BHW.

Wow...her blog is loaded with lots of yummy and healthy vegetarian recipes. Its really a very tough time for me to choose. And bookmarked some 6 recipes from that i tried Milagi Podi and Mushroom Pepper Fry. Usually for my idli milagai podi i wont add sesame seeds for the first time i tried with adding sesame seeds and loved it a lot.
           Coming to this Musroom Pepper Masala, its hot ...yep, really its Hot 'O Hot. My son Sanjay was not feeling well and caught with cold and cough. As this month (till this Monday) was Puratassi, we don't eat any non veg and egg dishes during Puratassi Month or else i would have made Pepper chicken fry. I made pepper rasam to sooth his throat and cough but he was not ready to eat the rasam... He likes Egg Pepper Fry but because of Puratassi my H didn't allow me to make it. So this Musroom Pepper Masala was a big remedy and helped a lot. Generally for any pepper dishes, i use to add freshly ground pepper at the end only but in this recipe she described to add it in the beginning itself. I followed the recipe as such and over all it was so so so so yummy and soothing....Thanks a lot dear sure this will be a keeper recipe and going to try chicken instead of mushroom :) Now to the Mushroom Pepper Masala...

Interesting Facts and Informations about Mushrooms:Mushrooms are considered to be "immuno-modulators".  When consumed, bio active compounds (particularly protein-bound polysaccharides) in mushrooms have strong effects on our immune system.  The effect can either be of up-regulation of a weak immune system that is compromised in its ability to fight infections, or down-regulation of a strong but misdirected immune system that is causing auto-immune disorders such as allergies, arthritis, asthma and other disorders.Just like humans, Mushrooms can produce Vitamin D upon exposure to sunlight and UV radiation. UV light is utilized in the production of these mushrooms. Mushrooms are also a good source of riboflavin and niacin and contain no fat or cholesterol.
Remember, pick your mushrooms in the store!

Mushroom Dosa / Mushroom Roast / Mushroom Masal Dosa

       I love eating dosa with filling (cauliflower,carrot,onion,potato,mushroom) more than dosa with chutney/sambar. these varieties of dosa are popular in southern India...Almost in all vegetarian hotels they serve for both breakfast n dinner. Mushroom roast is my own recipe, quite similar to dry curry but tastes great with dosa...Try this !!!
Nutritional Benefits(Mushroom):Mushrooms contain about 80 to 90 percent water, and are very low in calories (only 100 cal/oz).Mushrooms are an excellent source of potassium, a mineral that helps lower elevated blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke.The latest findings show that white button mushrooms can reduce the risk of breast cancer and prostate cancer.
