Mushroom Potato Masala, well the name is kinda self explanatory. The mushroom was supposed to be the star and the potato was a seat filler. However, potato turned out to be a star as well and not just a seat filler.
Though I buy Mushroom often, it ends up in pasta or omelet. This time I wanted to make a curry out of it and here you go.
This Mushroom Potato Masala is a simple and easy veg dish recipe that goes well with rice and roti. Mushroom gives the flavor and potato adds texture to this humble but tasty dish.
Give it a try and let me know how you like it, ok?
