Fried Mushrooms Ingredients

Method

Fried Mushrooms Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth. Remove the stems if desired, and cut larger mushrooms in half.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F).

  4. 4

    Fry the Mushrooms

    Dip each mushroom into the batter, allowing the excess to drip off. Carefully place them in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried mushrooms with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
