   Pepper-based recipes are very common across south indian states and are made with different hero ingredients. generally, the pepper as a spice is used for the flavour, to improve the spice level and eventually the taste of end product. one such simple and easy dish recipe made with a generous amount of pepper is mushroom pepper fry recipe, known for its flavour.

TIPS,SUGGESTION AND VARIATION:

 Firstly, I  would heavily recommend using button mushroom for this recipe. it would easily slice and at the same time do not crumble or meltdown when cooked. moreover, i would recommend getting bigger size mushrooms for this recipe. 

 Secondly, the pepper has to be added generously to this recipe, as it is the main source of taste and flavour. however, if you are serving it to kids, you need to extra careful as the spice level can be too much to handle for them. lastly, the mushroom would start releasing its water once it is rested. hence you may drain the excess water before reheating it in the microwave or in a pan.
