ButterMushroomMasala_HButterMushroomMasala_H2

If you love Mushrooms, you will love how they taste smothered in a spicy Butter Masala.  Very similar to Butter Chicken, this vegetarian version uses juicy Mushrooms instead. This Lent, I am Vegetarian and I have to admit that I haven’t been eating as many veggies as I should have. This period of 40 days each year forces me to take a good look at creating new and interesting ways to eat veggies. Lucky for me, Mushrooms are vegetables. I simply adore Mushrooms and can eat them anytime.

This Butter Mushroom Masala is rich and creamy and a real treat to your senses. Pair it with some rice or rotis and you have one satisfying meal.
