Writing a Guest post is always exciting. When Beula from EaterSpot asked me to do a Guest post, I accepted happily. The joy was doubled when she told me it was for celebrating Indian Independence day!

Few words about EaterSpot, in Beula's own words:

"I began blogging in March 2010 purely because of boredom. I moved from the US to New Zealand, had a full time job, was newly married but wanted to do more stuff ... thus my food blogging journey began. Over on my blog EATERSPOT, I share about recipes that have been part of my family and new recipes as well based on my current cravings or menu planning.

I've got non-vegetarian, vegetarian, Indian recipes and recipes from different cuisines, vegan, Gluten Free, Paleo and some kids recipes too :)"

Ingredients

• Button Mushroom – 200 grams
• Frozen Peas – ½ cup
• Onion – 1 big finely chopped
• Tomato – 2
• Ginger - 1 tbsp
• Garlic - 3
• Garam Masala powder- 1 tsp
• Kitchen king Masala - ½ tsp

• Cinnamon Powder – ¼ tsp
• Salt – as needed
• To temper:
• Oil – 1 tsp
• Cardamom – 2 pods

Instructions

• Wash the Mushroom well with hot water and keep it soaked in water (As mushroom turns to oxidise, I added a pinch of turmeric powder in water to prevent them changing color)
• Boil onion, garlic, ginger and tomato in hot water and strain the water. When it comes to room temperature, blend them into fine paste
• Add oil to the pan. Add bay leaf and cardamom after the oil becomes little hot. Add the blended tomato and onion puree and cook for 5-6 minutes. Add garam masala, coriander powder, cumin powder, chilli powder, turmeric powder and allow it to cook for 3-4
• Add the mushroom, peas and salt. Saute well for 10 minutes
• Add cinnamon powder and milk and let it cook for 3-5 minutes

Notes

1. I didn’t add water while cooking mushroom, as there was enough moisture, but you can sprinkle little water if required
2. Instead of milk, you can add 3 tablespoon of curd or 2 tablespoon of fresh cream/whipping cream
3. If you are using a cinnamon stick, add it while tempering
4. This gravy goes well with any variety rice like fried rice/ pulao as well as with naan/rotis
5.  boiled the onions and blended them, as it will save time while cooking. Instead, you can also sauté the onions
