Batter-Fried Mushrooms

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold sparkling water until the batter is smooth.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Mushrooms

    Dip each mushroom into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated, then carefully place it in the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the prepared horseradish and Dijon mustard together until well combined.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the crispy fried mushrooms hot with the horseradish mustard dipping sauce.
