Cooking Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

  • Panko crumbed mushrooms

  • 200g fresh assorted Asian mushrooms
  • 60g (½ cup) cake flour
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 150g (1 cup) panko breadcrumbs

  • Wasabi mayonaise

  • 100g good-quality mayonnaise
  • pinch of ground white pepper

Instructions

1

Wipe the mushrooms with a damp cloth. Place the flour in a bowl and season. Place the eggs in another bowl and the panko crumbs in a third bowl.

Heat the oil in a deep fryer and fry the mushrooms until golden and crispy, about 1 – 2 minutes per side.

Drain on a paper towel and season with a little salt.
