Cookd masalas for salted butter

Method

  1. 1

    Mix the shredded cabbage & msuhroom with the maida, cornflour, Cookd Madras 65 Masala and crushed pepper. Add salt; the masala also has salt. Sprinkle water. Rest for 10 minutes; the cabbage releases moisture and the batter binds on its own.

    Heat oil for deep frying. Squeeze the batter into loose, rough clumps and fry on medium-high heat until crisp and deep golden-red. Drain on a paper towel.

  3. 3

    In a wide pan, melt 2 tbsp butter. Add & saute the garlic, green chilli, curry leaves, onion, then add the button mushrooms.

    Add the crushed pepper & salt.

  6. 6

    Add the water. Simmer for 2 minutes until slightly reduced.

  7. 7

    Lower the flame to its minimum. Stir in the cream and let it warm through for 2 minutes without boiling, until it thickens enough to coat a spoon. Taste and add salt only if needed.
