Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Remove the tough ends of the oyster mushroom and then split into strips around 2-3 cm wide. After cleaning, slightly squeeze the water out.
  2. To make the batter: Mix starch, water, salt, black pepper and water in a small bowl until well combined.
  3. Coat the mushrooms: Coat the oyster mushroom with a layer of the batter. You can pour in the batter and mix well too.
  4. First-frying: Heat around 4 cups of oil in a wok and then slide the mushroom strips in for deep-frying until the surface becomes slightly brown. At the temperature around 170 degree C to 180 degree C .
  5. Fry for the second time: after you finish all the batches, heat the oil temperature higher (around 200 degree C) and then re-fry the mushrooms for around 4-6 seconds. This second frying method can make the batter much crisper.
  6. Seasoning and serve: Serve with salt and pepper.
