Instructions
 

PREPARATION OF INGREDIENTS

  • Wash, rinse and cut Mushrooms into 2 halves. If the mushroom is too big, then cut it into quarters.
  • Wash and rinse the bell peppers. Cut them into squares as shown in picture below.
  • Likewise cut the onion too in the shape of squares.

FRYING MUSHROOMS

  • Take a bowl and add rice flour, corn flour, salt and black pepper powder. (See notes below)
  • Add water, very little at a time and keep mixing.
  • Make a thick but runny batter.
  • Take few pieces of mushrooms and dip them in the batter for coating.
  • Put the coated mushrooms in oil for frying.
  • Let mushrooms fry from all sides until turn slightly golden brown.
  • Take them out of the oil. Keep aside.

MAKING OF CHILLI MUSHROOMS

  • Add oil in a pan or wok.
  • Add garlic and saute till it turns slightly brown.
  • Now add bell pepper and onion. (notes)
  • Saute on high heat until the sides of onion begin to turn golden brown. Remember don't let the pepper and onion turn soft. Their crunch should remain intact.
  • Add soya sauce, red chilli sauce, vinegar, tomato ketchup, salt and sugar. Mix well.
  • Now add fried mushrooms.
  • Give a good mix.
  • In a small bowl add corn flour.
  • Add water and make a thick lump free slurry.
  • Add this slurry to the Mushrooms.
  • Give it a mix until slurry mixed well.
  • Lastly garnish with spring onion greens.
  • Chilli Mushroom is ready.

Notes

Originally, all purpose flour is used to coat mushrooms. But we have used rice flour in place of APF.
2. Alternatively, you can use whole wheat flour also.
