Mushroom Curry | Mushroom Kuzhambu recipe with step by step pictures. Mushroom kuzhambu is mushrooms cooked in spicy gravy. I get mushrooms every week after coming here. Most of the times will make biryani or pulao. I have made mushroom kuzhambu few times long before. So thought of trying and made this mushroom kuzhambu similar to the way I do chicken kuzhambu and it came out so good and tasty. Everyone enjoyed it. It goes well with rice as well as chapati or idly/dosa.
