Steps:
- Finely chop onion, shallot, and garlic in a food processor. Heat butter and oil, then sautee onion paste (with a little sprinkle of salt), stirring occasionally, about 5-7 min until starting to brown. (It may turn green while cooking. Don't worry. This is fine.) Add pureed ginger and jalepeno and sautee a couple more minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Add spices and sautee until fragrant. Add tomatoes and simmer several minutes until reduced and browning. Adjust seasoning. Add cauliflower, carrots, and a cup or two of stock. Cover and cook awhile, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften (maybe 8-10 min?). Add mushrooms and greens, stir and add a little more stock if needed. Cover and cook several more minutes until vegetables cooked through. Add frozen peas, garam masala, and adjust seasoning to taste. Add sour cream or yogurt (optional) and stir to combine. Finally, add chopped cilantro. Serve over rice or eat as is. Yum!
MUSHROOM AND PEA CURRY
This Mushroom and Pea Curry is designed to be served as a side with three or four other Indian dishes, but I like it served over rice just as well.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, measure and chop all of your ingredients, and have them ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
- Use fresh mushrooms: Fresh mushrooms will have a more intense flavor and texture than canned or dried mushrooms. If you can't find fresh mushrooms, you can substitute canned or dried mushrooms, but be sure to soak them in hot water for 30 minutes before using.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the mushrooms and peas, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick to the pan.
- Use a good quality curry powder: The curry powder is the key ingredient in this dish, so be sure to use a good quality powder. Look for a curry powder that is made with a variety of spices, such as turmeric, coriander, cumin, and fenugreek.
- Adjust the heat level to your liking: This dish can be made as mild or as spicy as you like. If you like spicy food, add more chili powder or cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder dish, reduce the amount of chili powder or cayenne pepper.
