Ingredients
Method
- Clean the Portobello mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth. Remove the stems and set aside.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- In another bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
- Place the breadcrumbs in a third shallow bowl.
- Coat each mushroom cap in the flour mixture, dip in the eggs, then dredge in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure an even coat.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat (350°F/175°C).
- Fry the mushroom caps in batches for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer the mushrooms to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or as a sandwich filling.
Notes
- For a lighter version, you can bake the mushrooms in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
- This recipe can be easily adjusted for gluten-free diets by using a gluten-free flour and breadcrumbs.
