Mix until smooth and well blended without any lumps.

Provided by jsides

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup flour
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 dash garlic powder
1 cup cold water
2 tablespoons shortening, melted
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced 1/4-inch thick
shortening or oil for deep frying

Steps:

In mixing bowl, combine the flour, cheese, salt, and garlic powder. Stir in the water, melted shortening, and egg; beat till smooth. Pat the mushrooms dry. Dip mushrooms into the batter. Fry, a few mushrooms at a time, in shortening heated to 365°F. Fry until the mushrooms are golden, about 3 minutes, turning once. Drain on paper toweling. Salt lightly and serve immediately. To ensure nice, crispy, light mushrooms make sure the oil is at the proper temperature before dropping mushrooms in. Otherwise, they will soak up oil and be greasy and heavy. Let cool for at least 10 minutes, then serve with ranch dressing or whatever sauce you'd like.
