Ingredients

For the Mushrooms:

  • 200g (2 cups) button mushrooms, cleaned and stems trimmed
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt
  • Vegetable oil for frying

For the Spicy Ranch Dip:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

For the Mushrooms:

  1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Pat dry the mushrooms with a paper towel to remove any moisture.
  2. Set Up Breading Station: Place flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs in separate bowls. Mix garlic powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt into the breadcrumbs.
  3. Coat the Mushrooms: Roll each mushroom in flour, dip in egg, and coat evenly with seasoned breadcrumbs. For extra crunch, repeat the egg and breadcrumb step.
  4. Heat Oil: In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Fry: Fry mushrooms in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

For the Spicy Ranch Dip:

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
  2. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Serve:

  1. Arrange crispy mushrooms on a platter and serve with spicy ranch dip on the side. Enjoy while warm!

Notes

  • These mushrooms are best enjoyed fresh, as reheating may reduce crispiness.
  • You can air-fry the mushrooms for a healthier alternative.
