Village Azerbaijani Braised Mushroom Curry

Assemble the ingredients: mushroom, turmeric, cumin, coriander, carrot, tomato, butter.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the mushroom and cook until braised.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Azerbaijani flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Azerbaijani accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
