Ingredients
Method
- Clean the mushrooms thoroughly, removing stems if necessary.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and buttermilk together.
- Dip each mushroom in the wet mixture, then coat in the flour mixture. Repeat for extra crispiness.
- Roll the coated mushrooms in breadcrumbs until evenly covered.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot over medium-high heat (around 350°F/175°C).
- Fry the mushroom bites in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
Notes
- Ensure the oil is hot enough to fry, but not smoking. This prevents the mushrooms from absorbing too much oil and becoming soggy.
- If you're short on time, you can skip the double-dipping step but for extra crunch, it’s worth the effort!
