Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Halve the mushrooms. Slice the onion into thin half-moons.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onion and cook until soft and starting to brown, 4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until fragrant, about 60 seconds, then add mushrooms.

  4. Step 4

    Cook mushrooms 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release liquid and soften.

  5. Step 5

    Add crushed tomatoes, garam masala, and salt to taste. Simmer 4 minutes until flavors blend, then stir in cream and peas.

  6. Step 6

    Heat through for 2 minutes, then top with cilantro. Serve over rice or with naan.
