## Tips

- To enhance texture, don't soften onions completely; aim for golden brown with some bite.
- Dicing mushrooms helps them cook better and quicker.
- Adding green chilies at the end preserves their texture.
- If not using chickpeas, increase mushrooms by 250g.
- For a non-vegan version, substitute olive oil with butter/ghee and coconut yogurt with dairy yogurt.
