GARLICKY MUSHROOM SAUCE/HOW TO MAKE A MULTI-PURPOSE MUSHROOM SAUCE
This mushroom sauce makes you happy with amazing flavours and it’s multi-purpose usage in various dishes. The mushroom itself is a versatile ingredient that comes under healthy edible fungi. This healthy ingredient can make several dishes from soups to appetizers and the main course.
Taking advantage of the versatility of mushroom, I make this interesting sauce which can be used in several dishes and tastes better when eaten with savoury pancakes, hash browns and pasta. This sauce is buttery and garlicky with mild and fragrant spices. A pinch of nutmeg is magical and the white pepper powder feels incredible in this flavoured sauce
