Lisas mushroom fritters

6 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
---For Batter---
1cupAll-purpose flour
112 oz can of beer
teaspoonSalt
¼teaspoonBlack pepper
1teaspoonPaprika
1poundsMushrooms
Lemon juice
Salt
4cupsOil for frying

Directions

Prepare batter by blending all but mushrooms, salt, and lemon till smooth.

Wipe mushrooms clean with a mushroom brush or moistened paper towel.

(mushrooms will sponge full of water if they are washed in the sink, making for a watery dish.The soil they are grown in is sterile, so a little dirt won't hurt.) Sprinkle mushrooms with a little lemon juice and salt. Heat oil to 360F. Dip a mushroom in the batter and drop into hot oil. Repeat with remaining, cooking till golden. Keep mushrooms that are already cooked on a sheet lined with absorbent papaer in a low oven. Serve. I also do zuchinni slices this way and serve with fresh ranch dip.
