Mushroom Preparation

Breading Mixture

Method

Mushroom Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean and Slice the Mushrooms

    Begin by cleaning the fresh mushrooms under cold running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Slice the mushrooms into approximately 1/4 inch thick slices.

  2. 2

    Prepare Seasoning

    Finely chop the garlic cloves and mix them with salt and black pepper in a small bowl. This will be used to season the mushrooms.

Breading Mixture

  1. 3

    Prepare the Breading Setup

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one for all-purpose flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for a mixture of breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.

  2. 4

    Coat the Mushrooms

    Take each sliced mushroom and first dip it into the flour, making sure it is fully coated. Shake off any excess flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the mushroom slices in the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to ensure even coverage.

Frying

  1. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, pour in the vegetable oil and heat it over medium-high heat until it reaches around 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil temperature by dropping a small piece of bread into the oil; if it sizzles and browns quickly, the oil is ready.

  2. 6

    Fry the Mushrooms

    Carefully add the breaded mushrooms to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

  3. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Once all mushrooms are fried, sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish. Serve hot as an appetizer or side dish.
