Green poori and green chilli mushroom recipe

Today, I’m excited to share my take on a favorite dish – Green Chilli Mushroom, inspired by the flavors of Andhra-style Green Chilli Chicken that I adore from Meghna Biryani. This vegetarian version is a delightful twist that never fails to satisfy my cravings. Paired with it is the crispy and vibrant Green Poori, made with the goodness of palak leaves, creating a perfect duo that’s both visually appealing and incredibly tasty.
