Instructions
 

  • Heat butter or oil (add just one and a half tablespoon first and add more only if required) in a cooking pot or pan and add cumin seeds.
  • Once they begin to crackle, add onions. Fry onions, stirring often, till they just begin to turn golden.
  • Add garlic and chopped green chili and sauté till onions become golden in color and garlic is no longer raw.
  • Add tomatoes and cook till they soften.Add salt, chili flakes and coriander powder.
  • Add mushroom and saute the mushrooms for three to five minutes on high heat. (the time will depend on the size of the diced mushrooms)
  • Add boiled peas and keep frying on high heat.
  • After a minute or two, add the oregano and cook till most of the liquid is absorbed. (you can adjust how much moisture you want to keep or none at all)
  • Switch off the heat and sprinkle chaat masala. Give it a stir and serve hot with Indian flatbread (chapati) or toasted slice of bread.

Notes

  • I used half a teaspoon of chili flakes since the green chilies that I used was very hot. Also, feel free to adjust the ratio of peas to mushrooms.
  • Feel free to swap chaat masala with amchoor since the idea is to cut through the sweetness of peas with something tangy
