Mushroom tinga

The inspiration for this dish came about while rewatching Netflix's the Final Table. If you've never seen it, stream it now. It's a glorious hour of food porn, as well as a nice change from the petty rivalries you see in a lot of other competitive cooking shows (seriously, Netflix, when are you gonna drop season 2?). Anyway, in one episode, Taco King Esdras Ochoa made a variation on tinga using artichoke instead of the traditional chicken. It got me curious -- what exactly is tinga? After surfing the 'net a bit for more info, I decided to give it a go myself, except with mushrooms (I guessed they'd be a good substitute for meat). Once done, I piled the tinga onto some freshly steamed rice and topped the lot with a nice, runny egg. I don't know how authentic the end result was (not very, I'm guessing), but regardless it was totally delicious. And in the end, that's what matters.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Throw the onions and garlic into a medium pan with about a cup of water and a good pinch of salt. Turn the heat up to medium and let cook until the water boils off. Add a splash of veg oil and keep frying until the onions are softened and lightly browned. This will take about 15 minutes.
- 2
Add the mushrooms and continue frying for 2 to 3 minutes until they're softened and start to meld into the onions.
- 3
Stir in the tomato paste. Cook another 3 to 4 minutes to reduce and deepen the tomato flavour.
- 4
Combine the spices in a small bowl with a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Add the spice blend to the pan and stir well to incorporate. Let cook 3 to 4 minutes.
- 5
Add the tomatoes and turn the heat down to medium-low. Let cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the tomatoes dissolve into the sauce. Pour in the chicken stock and add the bay leaf, and simmer a final 2 or 3 minutes. When serving, reheat with a small splash of water if needed to loosen the sauce.

IndoMex Tinga IndoMex Tinga
#heirloomMexican Tinga is a dish made with shredded chicken in a sauce made from tomatoes, chipotle chilis in adobo, and sliced onions. It is often served on a tostada and accompanied by a layer of refried beans.I have my own fusion of it and twisted it completely .I remember my Mom used to twist the recipes: those that are non satvik she would turn into satvik. During Navratri (Indian goddess worship for 9 days and only satvik meal is served, which means no meats). And now I cherish my mom's tricks with my kids as well. When they have craving for it I make this for them in many ways. Here I am sharing one of it. This is my version: Shikha Yashu Jethi -
Mushroom Soup Mushroom Soup
I am a huge fan of mushroom soup. As much as I remember, I used to survive on Campbell's mushroom soup during my military years. That and some instant ramen. I had experimented, researched and tasted my fair share of mushroom soups. Eventually, I had settled for Heston Blumenthal's version. I love how he adds potatoes to enhance the creaminess of the soup and also the stacking aroma from the addition of leeks.I used a varieties of mushrooms instead of just one. There are so many to choose from, the wild expensive to the underrated cheaper ones. In the end, I settled for my 2 favorite; shiitake and Swiss brown button mushrooms. What really stands out here is Heston blitz some dried mushrooms into powder and act as a garnish. It really kicks this soup up a notch. Before drooling over that, let's get started with the recipe.
