Mushroom butter masala, How to make mushroom makhani
Mushroom butter masala/ Mushroom makhani is a rich, creamy and tasty gravy prepared with mushrooms. Mushroom butter masala is prepared by adding ground onion, tomato and cashew paste mixture to cooked mushrooms. Adding ripe red tomatoes and Kashmiri chilli powder gives this gravy natural orange color.
This mushroom makhani tastes slightly sweet in taste due to the addition of cashews and pinches of sugar. Cashews and cream gives this gravy a rich creamy texture and gives it a restaurant touch. If you don’t have cream at home add milk, and it wont alter the taste much; but definitely the consistency.
