Oil, For Frying
16 ounces, weight Fresh Mushrooms, White Or Crimini
1 cup All-purpose Flour
1/2 cups Cornstarch
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
3/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1/4 teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper
1/2 cups Buttermilk
1/2 cups Water
1 cup Fine Breadcrumbs (I Like Progresso)
1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1/2 teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper
1/2 cups Finely Grated Parmesan Cheese (optional)

1
Heat about an inch of oil in a pan.
2
I use an electric skillet so I can more accurately keep the oil temperature at 375 degrees F.
3
For the batter: mix the dry ingredients and spices in a medium bowl.
4
Add the water and buttermilk to make a thin batter.
5
You can just substitute in more water for the buttermilk, but I like the tangy note the buttermilk adds.
6
For the breading: mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl.
7
Dip a dry, clean mushroom into the batter, shake off the excess, and coat it completely in the breadcrumb mixture.
8
I like to use a bamboo skewer to dip the mushroom.
9
You could also use a toothpick.
10
Place the mushroom in the hot oil and fry on one side for a couple of minutes until it is a nice shade of brown and then turn it over to brown the other side.
11
Repeat with all mushrooms.
12
I use tongs to turn the mushrooms.
13
As you finish frying the mushrooms, put them on paper towels.
14
I serve them with fresh made buttermilk ranch dressing or creamy horseradish dip.
15
Delish and inexpensive!
