    5. Add 1 inch cinnamon (dalchini) stick. Cinnamon adds a subtle sweetness and warmth that can complement the earthy flavors of mushrooms and chana dal.
    6. Add 3 cloves (laung / lavang). Cloves have a strong, pungent aroma with hints of warmth and sweetness.
    7. Add 1 black cardamom (badi elaichi). Black cardamom has a unique smoky aroma and flavor that can add complexity to the dish.
