1
Clean the Mushrooms
Rinse the fresh button mushrooms under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
2
Chop the Garlic
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves. Set aside.

3
Prepare the Breading Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
4
Prepare the Egg Wash
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.

5
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan or deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
6
Coat the Mushrooms
Dip each mushroom into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
7
Fry the Mushrooms
Carefully place the coated mushrooms into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
8
Drain and Serve
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried mushrooms from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot, garnished with chopped garlic if desired.
