Heat oil and saute the onions till light brown. Now add the masala paste along with turmeric and sugar. Saute on low flame till the moisture dries up.

Add the mushrooms and salt and continue to saute on medium flame till the moisture evaporates. Add 3/4 cup water and cook, covered till dry. Serve, garnished with coriander leaves, ginger and red chilies.
