Spicy Chettinaad Mushroom Masala

I have slowly started to buy and cook Mushroom's. This is the second time, i cooked with Mushroom, and its again the same Mushroom Curry. More than me, My hubby loved it. I did'nt have any idea, of how to prepare it, but some how i framed the recipe, while i cleaned the mushroom's and its here. I would say, this is a very simple recipe, even a beginner can try this .
