Ingredients

Scale

For the Mushrooms:

  • 1 lb button or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1⁄2 cup cornmeal (optional, for extra crunch)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1⁄4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

For the Ranch Dressing:

  • 1⁄2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1⁄2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon parsley
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 12 tablespoons milk (to adjust consistency)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Ranch Dressing
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, parsley, salt, and pepper.
    Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the dressing reaches your desired consistency. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. Step 2: Prepare the Coating
  4. In one bowl, mix the flour, cornmeal (if using), garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.

  5. Step 3: Coat the Mushrooms
  6. Dip each mushroom slice into the egg mixture, then dredge it in the flour mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated.
    Place the coated mushrooms on a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes to help the coating adhere.

  7. Step 4: Fry the Mushrooms
  8. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C).
    Fry the mushrooms in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
    Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried mushrooms to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

  9. Step 5: Serve
  10. Arrange the fried mushrooms on a platter and serve with the chilled ranch dressing for dipping.
