Directions

Step 1

Clean and pat dry the button mushrooms. Cut them into halves or quarters depending on size.

Dip each mushroom piece in the batter to coat evenly, then carefully drop them into the hot oil. Fry in batches to not overcrowd the pan.

Step 6

In another pan, add 1 tablespoon of oil and heat over medium flame.

Step 7

Finely chop the garlic cloves and slice the green chillies and spring onions.

Step 8

Add the chopped garlic to the heating pan and sauté until golden brown.

Step 9

Stir in the sliced green chillies and the white part of the spring onions; sauté briefly.

Step 10

Add red chilli sauce, soy sauce, and tomato ketchup to the pan. Mix well to combine.

Step 11

Toss the fried mushrooms in the sauce mixture until well coated.

Step 12

Garnish with the green part of the spring onions before serving.

Step 13

Serve hot as an appetizer or side dish.
