Combine all the ingredients mentioned in the marination list above without adding water and allow it to rest for about 15 minutes
To Fry The Veggies
Shape the marinated veggies to a small ball size and deep fry them in a pan with medium heat until it turns golden brown in color. Drain and remove it from the oil and keep it aside for later use
To Prepare Gravy
Now in the same pan with the remaining oil, add onion and saute until it turns soft
Add the ginger-garlic paste and stir until it is fragrant
Now add the chopped tomatoes and wait for it to turn mushy
Then add chili, coriander, and turmeric powder to it and combine everything well
In a small bowl dilute cornflour in water and add it to the above mixture. This helps to thicken the gravy
Now add the fried veggies to the gravy and give it a final toss until everything gets incorporated well. Season with salt, if required
Switch off the heat, drizzle lemon juice to the gravy, and garnish it with chopped onion and cilantro leaves
Serve
Now serve the hot street style mushroom/kalaan as it is or with hot tea/coffee
