Mushroom 65

Mushroom 65 is a spicy and crispy Indian appetizer made by marinating mushrooms in a mixture of yogurt and various spices, including red chili powder, ginger-garlic paste, and sometimes food color for a vibrant look. The marinated mushrooms are then coated in a seasoned gram flour (besan) batter and deep-fried until golden and crispy. Often garnished with curry leaves and served with a side of mint chutney or sauce, Mushroom 65 is known for its bold flavors and crunchy texture, making it a popular vegetarian alternative to the traditional Chicken 65.
