This recipe we tried as one lady, from kalba, UAE, explains in a cookery show called food path.  Thanks to Mr. Kalesh for bringing her in this show.  She made it with meat, but we tried with mushrooms, instead. No doubt, it was really yummy......


Put the chopped mushrooms in a vessel containing water and 1/4 tsp turmeric powder,Pepper Powder, salt 1/2 tsp oil and 2 or 3 curry leaves Cook 10 minutes and keep aside.

Heat oil in a pan at medium heat. Splutter mustards and fry Ginger ,Grlic and Green Chillies. Now Fry them and then add the Shallots ( don't slice shallots). Stir fry until they are lightly browned. Bring down the heat and add the chopped mushroom pieces, grated coconut , masala powders, salt and curry leaves. If the item is too dry add water and stir .After that add the lime juice and cook 5 minutes. 


Garnish with coriander leaves and serve....!!
