Simple and breezy curry for chapatis. This is a vegetarian version of my egg and peas curry that I posted earlier.Mushrooms are versatile and can be used to make both mild and spicy curries.

This is a rich and flavorful gravy with coconut milk, tomatoes and cashew nuts. Try this,you will surely love this..
