  • 1 kg omanjova (wild mushrooms)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare the Mushrooms

Clean the mushrooms thoroughly. If they are large, cut them into smaller pieces.

Heat Oil

In a large skillet or pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

Sauté Onions and Garlic

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant.

Add Bell Pepper

Stir in the diced bell pepper and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.

Cook the Mushrooms

Add the mushrooms to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and have released their juices, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Tomatoes and Spices

Stir in the chopped tomatoes, paprika, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the tomatoes are softened and the flavors have melded together.

Garnish and Serve

Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley before serving.
