These deep fried shroomies taste so good with sauce!

For you, today I want to start off the food section of A&E Groove with a little deep fried lovin.’ If you’re anything like me, sometimes you are controlled by irrepressible urges to eat something greasy. Today happened to be one of those days. This recipe turned out to be absolutely amazing and was well worth all the battling I did with myself over whether or not I should really be eating this stuff.
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces whole mushrooms
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup Egg Beaters (or you can use 2 eggs)
- 1 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- olive oil, for frying
Step 1: Wash the shroomies and put the flour, egg beaters, and breadcrumbs in their own separate, small bowls.
Step 2: Coat each shroomer in flour, then dip in egg beaters, then coat with breadcrumbs (like a fungus-y assembly line). Repeat this process for each mushroom, and place them on a plate when finished with each.
Step 3: Fill a medium sized frying pan with 1/2 inch of olive oil and heat it on medium heat.
Step 4: Fry a few at a time (however many you can fit comfortably in the pan) for about 2-3 minutes each or until golden brown on both sides.
Here’s my ever-important suggestion to you—lay them out to dry on a few layers of paper towels. This soaks up some of the grease. When you’re ready to eat these bad boys, they taste delicious dipped in some tomato sauce.
