Wondering what Dingri is? It is the mushrooms. I got to know it from a Tarla Dala book and this recipe is also adapted from her recipe. This creamy gravy goes very well with Indian flat breads. I prepared chapathi to accompany this gravy and it was a great hit at home. The addition of cashew paste gives the gravy a rich look and taste. Prepare this and enjoy your dinner…
