Method:

1. Wash the mushrooms and boil them with a pinch of salt and ½ a teaspoon of oil.

2. Slice the onion, chop the tomato, mince the garlic cloves and cut the ginger in small slices.

3. Cut the cottage cheese into small blocks and sauté it in a pan with a little oil.

4. Deep fry the cashew nuts to make them look brown and crisp.

5. In a deep bottom round pan, put some oil and fry the onions, garlic, ginger and the tomato.

6. Add coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, chilli powder, and keep sautéing until the oil starts coming out from the mixture.

7. Add the parboiled mushrooms, half fried cottage cheese and cashew nuts to the mixture and keep stirring.

8. Cover and cook for a few minutes.

9. Add the nutmeg powder, cardamom powder and cinnamon powder to the vegetables and cover it for a minute.

10. Beat an egg and add it from the top, over the vegetables. Keep stirring continuously, so that the egg scrambles and mixes well with the vegetables.

11. Sprinkle some fresh coriander leaves on top and serve with hot rotis or freshly cooked rice.
