This mushroom curry is ideal for jiffy cooking. It can be done with minimal effort and time in your rush morning hours and pack it for lunch box with ease. Curries like this are a lifesaver when you want to have something delicious but are utterly tired after a long day at work. The process becomes even easier if you have the onion tomato paste handy!
It tastes very good with steamed rice, pulao or chapati.

2 cups chopped mushroom
1 medium sized onion
2 medium sized tomato
