Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 medium onion (1 medium onion) medium onion
- 10 grams (0.4 oz) root ginger
- 1 green chilli (1 green chilli) green chilli
- 3 tsp coriander-cumin powder
- 0.5 tsp garam masala
- 0.5 tsp chilli powder
- 0.5 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp tomato puree
- 3 spring onions (3 spring onions) spring onions
- 20 grams (1 oz) coriander
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 3 tbsp natural yogurt
- 1 lbs (400 g) chestnut button mushrooms
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 356°F.
- Dice the onion and mince the ginger and green chilli. Trim and halve or quarter the mushrooms so the pieces are roughly uniform.
- In an oven-safe baking dish, combine the diced onion, ginger, green chilli, coriander-cumin powder, garam masala, chilli powder, turmeric, salt, and tomato puree. Stir well so the spices are evenly distributed and no dry pockets remain.
- Add the mushrooms and sliced spring onions to the dish. Toss everything together until the mushrooms are well coated in the spiced tomato mixture.
- Cover tightly with foil or a lid and bake for 30 minutes. The mushrooms should be tender and the sauce bubbling around the edges.
- Remove from the oven, give it a good stir, and taste for seasoning. Adjust salt or chilli powder as needed.
- Serve hot alongside steamed basmati rice or warm naan.
Notes
- To intensify the flavor, sauté the onion, ginger, and chili in the oil for 5 minutes before adding the remaining spices.
- For a richer bake, use full-fat Greek yogurt instead of natural yogurt.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated gently in the oven or microwave.
