Prepare the Batter
Gradually add the ice-cold water to the dry mixture while stirring continuously until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the mushrooms.
Frying
- 5
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F). You can check the temperature with a thermometer or drop a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle immediately.

Remove from Oil
Fry the mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serve
Once all mushrooms are fried, garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
