Prepare the Mushrooms

  • Wash and slice the mushrooms. In a bowl, combine the mushrooms, crushed black pepper, ginger-garlic paste, salt, and vegetable oil. Mix well and let it marinate for 10 minutes.

Cook the Mushrooms

  • Heat the butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated mushrooms and 1/4 cup of water. Cover the pan and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender.

Finish and Serve

  • Stir in the malai (if using) and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in the fresh coriander and remove from heat. Garnish with extra coriander. Serve hot with roti, naan, or rice.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

  • For a deeper flavor, use a mix of black and white peppercorns.
  • If you don't have malai (cream), you can use a dollop of plain yogurt or coconut cream instead.
  • Adjust the amount of black pepper to your preference. Start with less and add more if desired.
  • For a vegetarian/vegan version, ensure your malai is dairy free or omit it entirely.
