Moisture spoils Mushrooms. So at the time of preparation, wash them.
As the stem of button mushrooms is an edible part, slice or chop mushrooms along with it.

Serving Suggestions :
Serve warm Mushroom Fry with phulka roti or rice.
Prepare a wrap using a tortilla and serve in a lunch box.
Mushroom fry is a healthy filling option for sandwiches or taco.
