Mushroom Roast Recipe - Mushroom Recipes
June 23, 2015
Mushroom roast recipe, how to make mushroom or mushroom ularthiyathu.
Mushroom roast or mushroom ularthiyathu- is a quick and easy recipe made with mushrooms and a few Indian spices especially crushed black pepper. This mushroom roast is a simple Kerala style dish; and pairs well with rice or Indian flatbread (roti).
Button mushrooms or portobello mushrooms works very well, though originally this roast is made with wild mushrooms also(check notes). The flavor of curry leaves and crushed pepper stands out and the roasting in coconut oil gives it a unique taste.
Come monsoons in Kerala, wild mushrooms were abundant, during my childhood; my grandmother used to make this mushroom roast for dinner and whenever I make this, I still can relive those days.....such is the power of home-cooked food!
The mushrooms get a dark color after roasting in coconut oil.
This roast can be served wrapped in Roti and makes a perfect lunch box meal for kids and adults alike. A family favorite and easy to prepare and I had to share this recipe with you :)
How to make mushroom roast with step by step pictures.
Heat a pan or kadai with coconut oil. Add in the sliced onions, green chilies, garlic, and curry leaves. Allow it saute on medium flame till it becomes transparent. Add in Kashmiri chilli powder, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, and crushed pepper powder.
Mix the masalas well and allow it to saute for a minute on low flame so that the raw flavor diminishes. Add the sliced mushrooms.
Put the flame on high and mix the mushroom well. Once it is heated water will start to release from the mushrooms, reduce heat to medium, cover and cook the mushrooms for about 3-5 mins. Once the mushrooms are cooked and water has dried up, stir it well and allow it to roast for a minute or two on low flame. Add in crushed pepper and again roast it for 7 minutes or until done.
Lastly, add in fresh curry leaves and mix well for 1 minute and then switch off the flame. Serve this hot with rice or chappathi.

NOTES
- Once mushroom is washed slice it up. Do not slice mushrooms and then rinse in water as it will make the mushroom watery or absorb water.
- This mushroom roast or mushroom ularthiyathu has all the masalas and roasting/sauting it helps to bring out the flavors. The crushed pepper and the curry leaves flavor stands out.
- Try to make this mushroom ularthiyathu in coconut oil. If using wild mushroom always put in turmeric water and wait for sometime; if color changes that mushroom is not fit for use. Disclaimer-Some wild mushrooms are poisonous and hence not fit to consume.

I said i tried making your never fail cake . It turned out sticky on top and would not get brown on top although the sides were grown. Is it because i did not separate dry and wet ingredients? Please help. Really want to try it again

Pidiyum Kozhiyum Recipe - How To Make Kerala Style Kozhi Pidi - Kerala Recipes
November 26, 2015
Pidiyum kozhiyum or kottayam style pidi is a traditional knanaya cuisine ; these rice dumpling have a thick gravy like sauce, unlike the dry versions of Malabar kakka roti or kozhi pidi. Knanaya style pidi is served with varutharacha kozhi curry. Traditionally, pidi is associated with baby shower ie when the daughter-in-law is sent to her parents house for delivery, it is customary for the mother-in-law to make kozhi pidi and we knanaya people still follow these traditions. My main aim is to preserve this recipe; so that the future generations can enjoy this wholesome dish. Pidi is rice dumplings which is simmered in water along with shallots, garlic, curry leaves, and coriander seeds; but I have used coriander powder instead to make the whole process easy. Amma mentioned that if using coriander seeds then; the water used to mix the rice flour should be sieved and that using fresh roasted coriander powder saves time. I have made a video recipe and I hope this you help
