Notes

• Instead of maida you can also use cornflour.
• In the above i've used oregano powder for flavoring. Instead of that you can use dried basil or thyme or any other indian spices or omit all and keep it simple.If you wish you can increase the quantity of mushrooms.
• If you want you can add choice of finely chopped veggies too.
