Recipe Tips and Tricks

  • Use fresh mushrooms: For the best texture, choose firm and fresh mushrooms like button or cremini.
  • Pat mushrooms dry: Removing excess moisture ensures crispier results.
  • Season the breadcrumb mix well: Add garlic powder, paprika, or Italian herbs for an extra flavor boost.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan: Fry in batches to maintain even cooking and crispiness.
  • Serve immediately: These mushrooms are best enjoyed fresh out of the fryer.

  • 1 tsp garlic powder
