Mushroom Chutney



Mushroom Chutney

This is my Daughter's Recipe. She has lot of food allergies and she has lot of limitations. She is not allergic to mushrooms, but she just dosen't like to eat Mushrooms in any form, however you cook them, she just won't eat. Then one fine evening, she came up to me, and she asked me try mushroom chutney for her, she thought of this recipe and I tried it for her, and guess what, VIOLA....she eats mushrooms now, but only in the form of mushroom chutney....
I just added some extra ingredients in it later for my hubby.

So here is Meha's famous Mushroom Chutney Recipe:

1 cup of chopped Mushrooms (the small white ones are really good and earthy).
1 small chopped onion
1/2 chopped tomato (small)
1 tsp. Cumin seeds(dry Roasted)
1 and 1/2 tsp. Coriander powder
1 tsp. Urad dal (dry roasted)
1 tsp. Dalia (roasted channa dal)
2-3 curry leaves
1 tsp. roasted peppercorns
Salt to taste

Tempering:

2-3 tsp. oil
pinch Hing
1 tsp. mustard seeds
1 tsp. cumin seeds
1 tsp. Urad dal
cury leaves
Red chilli flakes


Procedure:

Fry the chopped mushrooms, onions and tomato in 2 tsp. oil. Then blend it finely with Cumin seeds, Urad dal, dalia, curry leaves and peppercorns. Add salt as per taste.
then temper the chutney. Add water as per the thickness you want for the chutney. It goes very well with plain hot white Rice ans ghee on it or you could have it with Idli.

Thanks to my Daughter for this wonderful Recipe.
