Anytime we go to Costco I never fail to grab a big box of baby portabella mushrooms. They seem to taste better than the white button mushrooms for some reason. After breaking my head on what special dish to cook with the same, finally decided on this tasty side with mushrooms and bell peppers. 
This is similar to the kadai paneer posted earlier and is easy to make. If you have canned tomato puree, that simplifies one step in this recipe. I also make the masala in bulk and it makes it easy to put this dish together in a jiffy. Overall a simple yet exotic gravy that can be made for parties as well. Off to the recipe.
