Original Recipe Yield 8 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 pound button mushrooms, quartered
  • 2 cups oil for frying, or as needed

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and garlic salt. Mix in egg and water until smooth.
  2. Heat the oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Test to see if oil is hot by frying a drop of batter. If it sizzles and floats to the top, the oil is ready.
  3. Dip mushrooms into the batter and then place in the hot oil. Fry a few at a time so they are not crowded, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
