Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine plain yogurt, gram flour, ginger-garlic paste, and green chili-coriander chutney. Add turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, garam masala, lemon juice, vegetable oil, and salt. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Gently clean the button mushrooms and add them to the marinade, ensuring each mushroom is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  3. Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to a medium-high temperature, around 400°F (200°C).
