Serving Suggestion: This dish pairs excellently with hot puris or crispy babay papadums.
Variation: For a different vegetable profile, substitute the mushrooms and peas with 1 lb of baby sweetcorn and 4 oz of snow peas. Add the sweetcorn with the cilantro, and add the snow peas about 1 minute before serving to keep them crisp-tender.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain texture.
