Method

  1. 1

    Heat a large non‑stick skillet over medium heat; add the chopped mushrooms directly without any oil and sauté for 4–5 minutes until they release their moisture and the liquid evaporates.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The mushrooms release moisture, which then evaporates.

  2. 2

    Turn the heat to medium‑high and add 2 tsp oil to the pan, spreading it evenly.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped garlic cloves and finely chopped onion to the oiled pan; sauté for another 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The onion turns translucent and smells fragrant.

  4. 4

    While the aromatics cook, place the paneer, peri‑peri seasoning, and Kashmiri red chilli powder in a blender; blend until a smooth paste forms, adding a splash of water if needed to achieve a spreadable consistency.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The paneer paste becomes smooth and spreadable.

  5. 5

    Season the mushroom mixture with chilli flakes to taste; stir well to distribute the heat evenly.

  6. 6

    Pour the prepared paneer paste into the skillet, mixing thoroughly with the mushrooms, garlic, and onion so that everything is evenly coated.

  7. 7

    Season with salt only if needed, then sprinkle oregano over the mixture; stir and let the dish simmer for 2–3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The paste coats the mushrooms evenly after simmering.

  8. 8

    Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more chilli flakes or oregano if desired.

  9. 9

    Remove the pan from heat; garnish the dish with freshly chopped coriander.

  10. 10

    Serve the hot peri‑peri mushroom immediately with warm roti or herb‑infused rice.
