Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Mushrooms

    Thoroughly clean the button mushrooms under cold water and remove stems. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Battering Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.

Frying

  1. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 6

    Batter the Mushrooms

    Dip each mushroom into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

  3. 7

    Fry the Mushrooms

    Carefully place the battered mushrooms into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes.

  4. 8

    Drain Excess Oil

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried mushrooms and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving

  1. 9

    Serve

    Serve the fried mushrooms warm with your choice of ranch dressing or cocktail sauce for dipping.
