MUSHROOM CHEESE CUP

INGREDIENTS
7-8 mushrooms
1 finely chopped onion
2-3 tbsp butter
1/2 tsp oregano
1 tbsp tomato sauce
1 tsp schezwan chutney
1/4 cup crumbled paneer (optional)
1/4 cup grated processed cheese or mozzarella cheese
salt and chili flakes to taste



Mushrooms Mushrooms are rich in B vitamins such as riboflavin, folate, thiamine, pantothenic acid, and niacin.Mushrooms also provide several minerals that may be difficult to obtain in the diet, such as selenium, potassium, copper, iron, and phosphorus. 

Many of us make paneer mushroom, , matar mushroom. But have you ever thought of making some snack with it. Making snack with mushroom generally turns out be very bland and boring for kids due to it's taste.

I added schezwan chutney in this recipe to suppress  it's bland taste. I added  very less quantity as kids can't tolerate very spicy food. Depending on the taste an tolerance level of your child you can adjust the quantity. you can even replace it with salsa sauce or pizza sauce.

Keep salt and spices little higher because of bland mushrooms. Or you can sprinkle some salt and seasoning over the top.

Adding paneer is optional.

I hope your family and kids will love this too.

YOU CAN BAKE THESE MUSHROOMS RATHER THAN ROASTING IN BUTTER AT 180 DEGREE FOR 5-8 MINUTES.
