Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large portobello mushrooms
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 cups Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Clean the portobello mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth. Remove the stems and slice the mushroom caps into 1/2 inch thick strips resembling fries.
Step 2
Set up a dredging station. Place the flour in one shallow bowl. Beat the eggs in a second shallow bowl. Mix the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a third shallow bowl.
Step 3
Coat each mushroom strip first in flour, ensuring all sides are lightly covered. Shake off any excess.
Step 4
Dip the floured strips into the beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off.
Step 5
Press the strips into the panko mixture, ensuring each strip is well coated. Use your hands to gently press the breadcrumbs onto the strips to make sure they adhere.
Step 6
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. You want enough oil in the skillet to allow the mushroom fries to be half-submerged.
Step 7
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the mushroom strips in batches, avoiding overcrowding the skillet.
Step 8
Fry the mushrooms for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 10
Serve the mushroom fries warm, garnished with additional grated Parmesan cheese if desired, and enjoy!
