Mushroom Paneer Tossed in Tangy Tomato

Mushroom Paneer Tossed in Tangy Tomato







This is special to me as I was not confident on the concept. But at the end it was YuMmY!!!
Thanks to Mansi who helped me get this content typed and helped me in the kitchen. And my wife who has always given right feedback. And the dish came out perfect.

Did you know?
Many mushroom species produce secondary metabolites that can be toxic, mind-altering, antibiotic, antiviral, or bioluminescent. Although there are only a small number of deadly species, several others can cause particularly severe and unpleasant symptoms. Toxicity likely plays a role in protecting the function of the basidiocarp: the mycelium has expended considerable energy and protoplasmic material to develop a structure to efficiently distribute its spores. One defense against consumption and premature destruction is the evolution of chemicals that render the mushroom inedible, either causing the consumer to vomit the meal (see emetics), or to learn to avoid consumption altogether. In addition, due to the ability of mushrooms to absorb heavy metals, including those that are radioactive, European mushrooms may, to date, include toxicity from the 1986 Chernobyl disaster and continue to be studied
