Easy Mushroom Gravy

Mushroom is one of my favourite food. Be it a manchuri or gravy or a dry kootu, I just love them. This gravy is my family favourite too. Its so creamy with right amount of spiciness. Once I made this for my guests and they enjoyed it to the core ( restaurant gravy madiri irukudu!!! was the comment I recieved) And today and I have made this for you all.. Hope you all enjoy it!!!

Notes
This tastes best with chapati, dosa, poori,,,, and so on.
Clean the mushrooms properly before use.
This is medium hot, add some more chilli powder if you want a hot version.
