Breaded Fried Mushrooms

Breaded fried mushrooms are juicy bites sealed in a crisp, golden coating – a quick-to-make favourite.

1. Clean the mushrooms, wash them quickly, drain them thoroughly and pat them dry.

2. Salt them lightly.

3. Toss the mushroom caps in flour, dip them in beaten egg, then roll them in breadcrumbs.

4. Fry them golden in plenty of moderately hot oil.

5. Lift them out with a slotted spoon onto paper towel.

6. Let them rest for a few minutes.

7. Serve with rice or chips.

Tip: Only bread well-dried mushrooms, so the coating clings better.
