  4. Mix the frying mix with cold carbonated water to make a crispy batter.
  5. Coat each stuffed mushroom evenly with the batter.
  6. Deep-fry in hot oil until the mushrooms are cooked through and the exterior is crispy and golden.

  2. Coat the stuffed mushrooms with a crispy batter made with carbonated water.
  3. Deep-fry until golden and crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, and finish as bite-sized fritters.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Since the mushrooms release moisture inside, make sure to seal the opening completely when coating with batter to prevent leaks.
  • Use easily available button mushrooms with a mild aroma instead of expensive matsutake mushrooms for better value.
