How to Make Mushroom Sweet and Sour

Step-by-Step

In a pan, heat oil and chopped garlic over a medium fire.

P.S. I heat oil and garlic together for the release of the wonderful fragrant of garlic.
Saute onion, red chillies and curry leaves for 2 minutes or less.
Add mushrooms and saute. Now add turmeric powder and chilli powder and mix well. Add mashed tomato and mix well.

P.S. I love to use mashed tomato for the rich texture and flavour it gives.
Add soy sauce, chilli sauce and lime juice and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
For the sauce (optional):

In a small bowl, whisk soy sauce, salt, pepper, sugar and lime juice. Add chopped garlic (optional) to the sauce.
Pour the sauce over the cooked mushroom and mix well. Mushroom sweet and sour is ready to be served.
