Step 2: Prepping Mushroom & Tomatoes

Before Cooking, you'll have to keep a few things ready beforehand.

1. Let's start with the Mushrooms, slice mushrooms into vertical pieces and keep aside.
2. Start soaking the tomatoes in a bowl of boiling water. This will make it easy to peel off the skin. Now dice them into fairly sized cubes.
