Mushroom Methi Malai Matar - Four yummy M's

This week I thought of something veggie and involved all four components which are liked individually by my daughter and hubby.After being a mumma I have learnt to find nutrition in every bite my little one takes and love to extend my recipes for her choices.Being a mother of a fussy toddler I am more in kitchen and coming up with something which I never cooked before.We make them eat while talking of colours or cartoons or any thing that makes them open their much awaited mouth.Thats the biggest joy right now in my life.so we begin our recipe with serving two adults and accompanies well with hot roti.
Ingredients:
1)Mushrooms 250g
2)Onion one medium
3)Tomato paste of two
4)Peas 125 g
5)Kasurimethi 1tablespoon
6)Cream or malai two tablespoon
7)Gingergarlicpaste 1 tablespoon
8)Dry masalas-coriander powder 1 teaspoon,garam masala 1 teaspoon,red chilli powder as per taste,jeera
9)salt to taste
10)Cooking oil
11)Butter for sauting mushroom first
We start  by chopping our veggies.Cut as u like to eat.I cut all in one size,that cooks well evenly.So we saute our mushrooms in butter and keep aside.The saute  is for few minutes as  to let it leave its juices.We take pan and start by pouring oil for frying.Now we add jeera once spluttering then onion and turn them golden brown then ginger garlic paste and further add tomato paste .After they leave oil add coriander powder and garam masala.Now we add peas and then we  stir it for few minutes cover the lid and after 5minutes add kasuri methi and mushrooms sauteed ones,once all this leaves oil add salt and finally cream.We wont cook much after adding cream,just let the mix get cooked evenly,remove from cooktop.Garnish with coriander and enjoy hot veggies with phulkas.Hint of kasurimethi adds wonderful flavour and adds newdimension to this.
