Mushroom Rice

Mushroom is one of my favorite vegetarian food item and I make a wide variety of mushroom dishes at home. One of the most sought out and easiest to make is the Mushroom rice which I cook with the concept of Mandhi. Mandhi is an Arabian dish where rice is cooked with the water dripping of the meat, here I use the water that comes out while cooking mushroom to cook the rice letting the aroma and taste of the mushrooms get soaked in the rice. I use an instant pot or the pressure cooker for this one and it’s one of the easiest dishes to make for any busy weekday dinners. I took it in my lunch box one day to office and folks asked did I cook biriyani, I had to tell them it’s a simple rice dish but they wanted to taste it and then they all demanded me to make this for them. I never thought this is a recipe that would find a place in my blog but people seem to love it and hence I think it’s worth sharing.
