Title: Angelina's Funghi In Pastella (Mushroom Fritters)
Categories: Mushrooms, Herbs
Yield: 5 servings
MMMMM-------------------------MUSHROOMS------------------------------
1 lb Mushrooms; rough chopped
1 cl Garlic; minced
1 Handful parsley; chopped
Salt & pepper
Olive oil
MMMMM---------------------------BATTER--------------------------------
1 lg Egg
3/4 c Water
1 1/2 c Flour
Salt & pepper
MMMMM--------------------------OPTIONAL-------------------------------
4 tb Parmesan cheese; grated
MMMMM----------------------FOR DEEP FRYING---------------------------
Olive oil
Saute the mushrooms in a bit of olive oil with the garlic and
parsley, and seasoning lightly with salt and pepper, as if you were
making funghi trifolati. (Be sparing with the oil.) Let cool.
Beat the egg and water together, and whisk in the flour little by
little until you have a homogenous batter.
Add the mushrooms to the batter. Season the batter with a bit more
salt and pepper-not too much as the mushrooms are already seasoned
and, if using the grated cheese. As you add ingredients, fold
everything together well with a spatula until the mushroom and
batter mixture is quite uniform.
Now heat abundant oil in a pan, at least one inch (3 cm) deep. When
the oil is hot (but not boiling) drop spoonfuls of the mushroom
batter into abundant hot oil, keeping them well spaced. Deep fry
until golden brown, proceeding in batches if need be, and
transferring the fritters as they are done to a tray lined with
paper towels or (my preference) a cooling rack placed over a baking
sheet.
Serve your mushroom fritters hot, sprinkled with some additional
salt if you like.
