Pepper Mushrooms

You all might be aware of the fact that mushrooms are highly nutritious. Recent studies shows that it also acts against Alzheimers disease. You should buy fresh muhrooms for getting its health benefits. Here, mushrooms would appear in the land around home, especially on rotten branches or around the "virakupura" (a room for storing firewood) etc. No body here knows that they are edible. So we should depend the canned mushrooms or buy fresh mushrooms only when some one visits the supermarkets in the city. I prepared this with canned mushrooms, I think this dish will be more tasty if you replace it with the fresh one.
