Portobello Fries

Spicy Horseradish Comeback Sauce

Method

Portobello Fries

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the Portobello mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Remove the stems and slice the caps into fry-shaped pieces, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, set up your breading station: one with all-purpose flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Mushrooms

    Dip each mushroom slice into the flour, coating both sides. Shake off excess flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off. Finally, coat with the panko breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Mushrooms

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the breaded Portobello fries in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches). Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, transfer the fries to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately while hot.

Spicy Horseradish Comeback Sauce

  1. 6

    Mix the Sauce

    In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish sauce, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined.

  2. 7

    Season to Taste

    Add salt and black pepper to taste, mixing well. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

  3. 8

    Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate the sauce for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld. Serve alongside the Portobello fries.
