Fried Mushrooms

4. **Coating the mushrooms:** Dip each cleaned mushroom into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated, then roll it in the breadcrumbs until evenly covered. Press gently to adhere the breadcrumbs to the mushrooms for a crispier coating.

5. **Frying the mushrooms:** Carefully place the coated mushrooms into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Overcrowding can lower the oil temperature and result in soggy mushrooms. Fry until they turn golden brown and crispy, usually for about 2-3 minutes per batch.

6. **Draining excess oil:** Once fried, remove the mushrooms from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels. This helps absorb excess oil and keeps the mushrooms crispy.

7. **Seasoning and serving:** Sprinkle the crispy fried mushrooms with a bit more salt and pepper if desired. Serve them hot as a delicious appetizer or snack option. You can also serve them with dipping sauces like garlic aioli or ranch dressing for extra flavor.

By following these steps and cooking tips, you’ll achieve perfectly crispy fried mushrooms that are bursting with flavor. Enjoy your cooking!
