Finish and Serve
Replace ghee with a neutral oil like sunflower or canola oil, and substitute the curd with a thick, unsweetened plant-based yogurt like cashew or coconut yogurt.
Add 200g of cubed paneer or firm tofu along with the mushrooms. Sauté them separately before adding to the gravy.
Incorporate other vegetables like baby potatoes, carrots, or green peas. Parboil the potatoes and carrots before adding them to the gravy to ensure they cook through.
For a richer, creamier finish, stir in 2 tablespoons of cashew paste or fresh cream at the end of the cooking process.
The array of spices like turmeric, cloves, and cardamom, along with onions and garlic, are packed with antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress in the body.

Key ingredients like ginger and turmeric contain powerful anti-inflammatory compounds (gingerol and curcumin) that can help reduce inflammation in the body.
Mushrooms are a natural source of B vitamins like riboflavin, niacin, and pantothenic acid, which are essential for energy production and maintaining a healthy nervous system.

Absolutely. To make it vegan, replace the ghee with a neutral vegetable oil and use a thick, unsweetened plant-based yogurt, such as cashew or coconut yogurt, in place of the dairy curd.
Yogurt can curdle if it's added to a very hot pan or if it's not stirred continuously. To prevent this, always lower the heat to a minimum, use room temperature yogurt, and add it slowly while stirring vigorously until it's fully incorporated.
This curry pairs beautifully with Indian breads like naan, roti, or paratha. It also goes very well with steamed basmati rice or a fragrant jeera rice.
