Mushroom Potato Curry is a semi dry side that works very well to be served with hot rotis. The dish gets done very quickly and only needs basic spice powders.
You must have noticed I hardly post any Mushroom recipes, that's because I don't eat Mushroom. Of course, I share nonveg because I have people who can vouch on the taste. So when it comes to Mushroom, since both Hubby dear and I don't eat, it never gets done.
However, Daddy and Konda loves it, so Amma makes it a point to make it when they happen to see good button Mushrooms available. Athamma is visiting us and with her also liking it, the audience for this was more. When I had made Paneer Butter Masala for the kids, this quick side dish was made for the elders who loved Mushroom more!
This is the second curry for the BM#95 Week 3, where I am sharing some quick Prep to Plate dishes and I decided to showcase some curries.

I love mushrooms and make it very often. However, never tried mushroom potato combination. Looks amazing.

I simply love both potatoes and mushrooms in my curries, and this combo just rocks. Lovely dish to have with some rotis without any fuss.

Wow!This is a unique combination as well, Valli. My kids would love to try this combo both of the ingredients happen to be their fav.

I love mushrooms and make dishes regularly. But I have combined it with potato only in kurma. This dry stir fry sounds like the best option to make for rice as a side dish.
chefmireille says
I am not a big mushroom fan and only use it when in combination with other ingredients but never before used it with potato. would definitely want to try it
srividhya says

Pavani says
That is an interesting combination of mushrooms and potato in a curry. I am the only one who eats mushroom in my house, so I make it when my husband is traveling. This sure is a quick and easy curry to make for 1.
Sandhya Ramakrishnan says
