Chicken kali mirch /Murgh kali mirch is a very popular dish in India and is a perfect treat for all spicy food lovers. My family loves this gravy so much that I end up preparing it every other weekend. Recently I had few guests visiting us of which some of them were vegetarians. I wanted my vegetarian guests to get the taste and feel of this delicious dish. And vegetable that is close to meat is mushroom with its soft and chewy texture. So I thought why not use them?
The outcome was a super hit. Not only did my vegetarian friends loved this dish, so did the meat lovers!
