Mushrooms and rice go really well together. You can add various other vegetables like green beans, carrots, cauliflower, etc. to make a different version of your own. I usually don’t like to keep a fixed recipe. Most of the times I add ingredients according to my taste buds at that point of time. That way one can come up with fresh recipes every single time. Hope you all like this one. 🙂

This is what you will need:-

Ingredients

½ cup Basmati Rice

1 cup diced button mushrooms

1 medium-sized red onion cut in julienne

2-3 garlic cloves

1 green chilli

1 tsp finely chopped ginger

¼ cup diced capsicum

2-3 sprigs of fresh coriander

3-4 black peppercorns

Shahi biryani masala (Everest)

1 pinch asafetida

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 tbsp clarified butter

1 tsp fresh lemon juice

Salt to taste

Method

• Heat clarified butter in a vessel. Add cumin seeds and asafetida. Saute on a medium-high flame.
• Add ginger, garlic and green chilli. Saute for 2 minutes.

• Next, add onions and sauté until they turn translucent.

• Add button mushrooms

• Next, add rice, biryani masala, black peppercorns, salt to taste and around one cup water.

• Cover the vessel with a lid and let it cook on a medium low flame for 5-7 minutes. Check at regular intervals. Add more water if required. Give it a taste to see if rice is properly cooked.

• Add fresh lemon juice and finely chopped coriander. Have with any nice Indian gravy or curd.

Happy Cooking! 🙂
