Preparation and Cooking

Make the Batter
In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the ice-cold water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.

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).

Coat and Fry the Mushrooms
Dip each mushroom into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered mushrooms into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Drain and Serve
