Chilli mushroom is a popular Indo-Chinese starter recipe, with Spicy, Sweet & sour flavour.
Chilli mushroom is served as an appetizer or as a main course dish along with fried rice or noodles.
There are two ways of making Chilli Mushroom:-
1) Dry Chilli Mushroom – mostly served as a starter.
2) Chilli Mushroom Gravy – served as a main course dish in Chinese cuisine along with some fried rice or noodles.
In this post, I am going to share the recipe of Dry Chilli Mushroom with step by step images.
The recipe is simple and effortless with a nice aroma of garlic and some lip-smacking flavours. Chilli Mushroom is mostly served as an appetizer, but, I & my family prefer eating it with either roti or noodles.
With this recipe, you can make the exact Restaurant Style Chilli Mushroom so let’s check out the recipe:-
Some secret tips for making delicious Restaurant Style Chilli Mushroom:-
- Marination time: do not marinate the mushroom and keep it for long, as the mushroom will start releasing water and will make the marination watery.
- Deep Frying: heat the pan nicely before adding oil, to avoid sticking at the bottom of the pan/ kadhai.

Ingredients:-
- Mushroom – 300 grams
For marination:-
- Black pepper/ Kali mirch – 1/2 tsp
- Corn Flour/ Corn Starch – 2-3 tbsp

For preparing the sauce:
- Garlic / Lehsun – 10-12 cloves finely chopped

- Green chilli sauce – 1 tbsp (according to the taste)
- Onion/ Pyaz – 2 diced
- Capsicum/ Shimla mirch – 2 diced
- Oil for cooking – 2-3 tbsp
- Corn flour slurry
Note: I made cornflour slurry by adding 1 tsp cornflour in 2-3 tbsp of water and mixing it nicely to remove any lumps.
Method:-
- Take sliced mushroom in a mixing bowl and add black pepper, salt and corn starch.
- Mix it all well and keep it aside.
- Heat the oil in a heavy bottom kadhai/ pan.
- Now, add the marinated mushrooms in medium hot oil and fry until slightly golden brown.

- When all the mushrooms are fried, remove the excess oil from the pan retaining only 2-3 tbsp of oil.
- Add chopped garlic and green chillies.
- Let them crackle for some seconds.
- Add diced onion.
- Sauté it on high flame for few minutes.
- Now lower the flame and add all the sauces.
- Mix them well.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes on medium flame.
- Add about half a cup of 1 small cup of water. (As we are making dry chilli mushroom, we don’t add a lot of water)
- Now add the cornflour slurry to get a nice consistency of the sauce.
- Mix it well and add the diced capsicum.
- Cook for some more minutes before adding the mushroom.
- Add salt to the taste and remember that we already added salt in the marination, so add accordingly.
- The sauce is ready.
- Add the fried mushrooms.
- Mix it all well so that the mushroom gets coated with the sauce.
