Description

Delicious fried mushrooms that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. This easy recipe can be made with a thin or thick breading, depending on your preference.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For Thin Mushroom Breading:

  • 8 ounces sliced mushrooms, cleaned
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned salt

For Thicker Mushroom Breading:

  • 2 eggs
  • 8 ounces sliced mushrooms, cleaned
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned salt
  • Vegetable or canola oil, enough to create an inch or more of oil in the pan if pan-frying or enough for your deep fryer

Instructions

  1. For Thin Mushroom Breading: Pour mushrooms into flour/salt mixture and stir or shake to coat.
  2. Heat oil in the pan over medium heat if pan-frying. If deep-frying, heat oil to about 375°F. Combine flour and seasoned salt in a large bowl or zip-top bag.
  3. For Thicker Mushroom Breading: Coat mushrooms in eggs, then seasoned flour. Place mushrooms in heated oil and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, flipping if necessary.
  4. If deep-frying, fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Wash mushrooms but do not soak to prevent them from retaining water and not cooking properly.
  • You can add extra seasonings after frying for more flavor.
