An irresistibly creamy sauce with sliced mushrooms, perked up with onions, green chillies and oregano. What makes this Mushroom Sauce a bit different from other white sauce based recipes is that it contains onions, which is essential in this case to enhance the flavour of the mushrooms. While making the Mushroom Sauce, ensure that it does not become too thick – the consistency should enable pastas to be tossed in it.
