Hoosier Fried Mushrooms Recipes

LOGAN'S ROADHOUSE FRIED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Pour oil into a large saucepan or deep fryer to a depth of 3 to 4 inches. Heat the oil to 350 degrees.
• Gently clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. If these stems are very large (greater than 3/4 inch), trim off the stem, as they may be woody. If the mushrooms are small, there is no need to trim off the stem.
• Combine the flour with the salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir to combine the flour mixture.
• Combine buttermilk and water in another bowl
• Dredge the mushrooms in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, and then dip them in the buttermilk.
• Dredge them in the flour again. Knock off the excess flour.
• Lower the mushrooms gently into the hot oil, cook them until they are golden brown. It will take about 2 to 3 minutes for the mushrooms to cook. Drain on a wire rack. Serve with your favorite sauce.

DEEP FRIED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Wash the mushrooms and remove most of the stem.
• Pat mushrooms dry with a paper towel.
• Coat mushrooms with flour, lightly tap to remove excess flour.
• Dip in eggs.
• Coat with bread crumbs.
• Set on a rack for a few minutes, so batter sets/dries.
• Heat the oil in the deep fryer to 375 degrees. Pay close attention to grease while it heats. Cooking with oil at high heat levels can be dangerous!
• Deep fry mushrooms in batches for approximately 3- 4 minutes or until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels and serve.

SOUTHERN STYLE FRIED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk the wine, water, flour, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until well combined and no lumps are visible. Dip each mushroom individually into the mixture to coat. Carefully put the coated mushrooms into the hot oil, keeping the mushrooms from touching and sticking together while cooking. Cook until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese to serve.
