Heat oil in a kadai and add the onion and tomato puree and fry till the raw smell goes off.

 

 

Add the marinated mushroom and saute. Add  half cup water and let the mushrooms cook and the masala smell goes off.

Now add the capsicum and mix well and Keep in medium flame and allow to boil for 5 more mins .Check the seasoning (We added salt in marination so add only if required).

Add the fresh cream and chopped  coriander leaves and give a good mix and switch off the flame.

 

 

This goes well with roti /Naan or even with pulao.

 

Notes:

I used red capsicum You can use any colour you want.Capsicum will cook fast so  we are adding it little later .Take care not  to overcook  the capsicum ,if it remains crunchy it will enhance the taste.
