Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 large mushrooms button or portobello
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs panko recommended for extra crunch
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 6 slider buns
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp sriracha or hot sauce optional
  • Fresh lettuce and tomato slices

Method
 

  1. Prep the Mushrooms: Clean and remove the stems from the mushrooms, leaving the caps whole.
  2. Coat the Mushrooms: In a bowl, mix flour, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk the egg and milk together.
  3. Fry the Mushrooms: Dip each mushroom cap into the egg mixture, then coat with the flour mixture. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the mushrooms until golden and crispy (about 2-3 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.
  4. Prepare the Sliders: Toast the slider buns lightly. Mix mayonnaise and sriracha for a spicy sauce.
  5. Assemble the Sliders: Spread the sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, a fried mushroom, and a slice of tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy, savory sliders!

Notes

  • You can make the mushrooms ahead of time and store them in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
  • For a vegan version, use a plant-based mayo and skip the egg, using a flax egg instead.
