Wash the cherry tomatoes and button mushrooms. Cut the tomatoes in half and slice the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Set them aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the curry powder, turmeric powder, and paprika, and cook for 1 minute to toast the spices.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their liquid and soften.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and stir gently. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften but hold their shape.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, lemon juice, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pour this mixture into the skillet, stirring to coat the vegetables evenly.
Season the dish with salt to taste. Allow the mixture to cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring the flavors meld together.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped cilantro over the dish.
Serve warm as a side dish, or spoon over steamed rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
