Chettinad Mushroom Recipe

on

To describe in mere words the palatability and lusciousness of the Chettinad gravy – or for that matter, any India gravy – would be an injustice of the highest order. But nonetheless, we shall give you an idea. A fairly piquant gravy with a blend of spicy and tangy flavours, the Chettinad is a rich South Indian curry that finds its roots in the Chettinad region of Sivaganga, Tamil Nadu.

With a blend of heady spices and flavouring agents stirred up to create magic, the gravy goes well with almost any thing – chicken, mutton, mushroom, paneer, you name it. This mushroom chettinad is one delicious example. Don’t take our word for it, just try for yourself and thank us later!
