Goan Mushroom Vindaloo


  And this will be my last post under "Meatless Dish".. I was thinking what next??? Then in my mind came the famous HOT AND SPICY...GOAN dish Pork Vindaloo, i have never tasted the dish... Only because its a challenge i thought i will go for the vidaloo.. recipe..
 Here goes a small description about the origin of the dish.It is globally known as a Goan Dish. the name 'Vindaloo' is derived from the Potugese dish, a meat dish, usually pork, with wine and garlic. the Goan's substituted it with vinegar and kashmiri chilly for the masala paste. Goan are known for pork and sea food recipes... They cant even think of a day without non-veg. Here lets divert the mind to be a bit veggie..
So here i present before the Fiery Version(not so spicy yet), with Mushrooms and Potato...
