Crispy Shrooms

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the button mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems if desired. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk together until well-mixed. Slowly add the buttermilk and stir until a smooth batter forms.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.

  4. 4

    Fry the Mushrooms

    Dip each mushroom into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, then carefully place it in the hot oil. Fry in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Prepare Truffle Ranch

    In a small mixing bowl, combine the ranch dressing with truffle oil and chopped parsley. Mix well.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the crispy fried mushrooms hot with the truffle ranch on the side for dipping.
