Ingredients
1/3 pound

1 1/2 cups
Flour
1 1/2 teaspoons

Step by Step Instructions
- Wipe dirt off of the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Mix the flour & spices together in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup of the flour mixture and 3/4 cup of water until a smooth mixture is formed.
- Dip each mushroom into the batter, into the flour, into the batter again, and into the flour again (to ensure they are double coated)
- Heat the oil in a pot over high heat. Add mushrooms to the pot in small batches and remove them from the oil with tongs once they have turned a golden color.
- Put the removed mushrooms onto a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil, then place them onto a cooling rack so they will be crispy.
- Enjoy the fried mushrooms with condiments of your choice and/or in a sandwich
