Cultural Context

Fried mushrooms, or 'funghi fritti', are a beloved snack in Italy, often enjoyed as an appetizer or side dish. This dish highlights the natural flavors of mushrooms, enhanced by a crispy coating.

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

1

Clean portobello mushrooms and ensure they are whole, not sliced.

2

Prepare a pot of oil filled halfway, heating it on medium-high.

3

In a bowl, add flour.

4

In another bowl, beat 3 eggs well.

5

In a third bowl, add panko bread crumbs.

6

Coat each mushroom in flour, ensuring it's fully covered.

7

Dip the floured mushrooms into the beaten eggs, making sure they are well coated.

8

Coat the egg-dipped mushrooms in panko bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

9

Set the breaded mushrooms on a plate.

10

If desired, place the breaded mushrooms in the freezer on a cooling rack until ready to fry.

11

Once the oil is hot, carefully place the mushrooms into the oil, starting with the larger ones.

12

Fry the mushrooms until they are golden brown, flipping them occasionally to ensure even cooking.

13

Once golden brown, remove the mushrooms and place them on a cooling rack to allow air circulation and prevent sogginess.

14

Season the fried mushrooms with salt and black pepper immediately after frying.

15

Serve with dipping sauces of your choice, such as sweet chili sauce or jalapeno ketchup.
