A crunchy snack made with enoki mushrooms, coated in flour and potato starch, then fried to perfection. Enhanced with garlic, chili, and a flavorful salt and pepper mix, this dish is a must-try for mushroom lovers.
1: Cut the roots of your enoki mushroom, wash and soak in water for 5 minutes. Drain and separate into smaller bundles by tearing at the root. Pat dry.
2: On a plate, mix together the flour, potato starch and kosher salt. Toss each bundle of mushrooms through the flour and set aside. In a small bowl, mix together the pepper powders and flakey salt. Set aside.
3: In a frying pan over med-high heat, heat up 1cm of frying oil until just before smoking and add the mushrooms to the pan (make sure you don’t overcrowd!). Fry for about 4-5 minutes on either side or until golden brown. Once fried, place onto a plate lined with a paper towel and immediately sprinkle both sides with the salt & pepper mix.
4: In a frying pan (or the same pan that has been cleaned) heat up 1 Tbsp of oil and fry the garlic for 30 seconds, then add the chilli and fry for another minute. Add the spring onion greens and turn off the heat.
5: Place fried mushrooms onto a plate, top with the garlic chilli mix and more of the salt and pepper seasoning. Devour while hot!
