Garnish and Serve
Replace mushrooms with cooked chickpeas, black-eyed peas (alsande), or paneer cubes. Adjust the final simmering time accordingly.
Incorporate other vegetables like diced potatoes, carrots, or green beans. Add them along with the onions to ensure they cook through.
Increase the number of dried red chilies or add a slit green chili when sautéing the onions for an extra kick of heat.
Mushrooms and spices like turmeric are packed with antioxidants, which help protect the body's cells from damage caused by oxidative stress.
Mushrooms contain beta-glucans, unique compounds known to enhance the immune system's response and help the body defend against infections.
This recipe is entirely plant-based, providing essential nutrients, dietary fiber, and protein without any cholesterol, making it a heart-healthy choice.

A single serving of approximately 1 cup (225g) contains around 250-300 calories. The exact count can vary based on the amount of coconut and oil used in the preparation.
The fresh coconut paste is the heart of a traditional Mangalorean 'Gashi' and provides its signature flavor and texture. Substituting it would significantly alter the dish. If you must, a paste of cashews or poppy seeds could be used, but it would no longer be an authentic Gashi.
It pairs wonderfully with steamed rice (especially Mangalorean boiled rice), Neer Dosa, Sannas (steamed rice cakes), or even soft chapatis and rotis.
Leftover Mushroom Gashi can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors often become richer the next day. Reheat gently on the stovetop before serving.
