Follow The Directions

01

Step

Heat vegetable oil in a small saucepan or deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Spread panko bread crumbs into a shallow dish. (1 minute)

03

Step

Dip mushroom slices in beaten egg, then dredge them in panko bread crumbs, ensuring they are fully coated. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Carefully place breaded mushrooms in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. (10-15 minutes)

05

Step

Remove fried mushrooms with a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. (2 minutes)

06

Step

In a blender or food processor, combine feta cheese and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Gradually stream in water, one tablespoon at a time, while blending, until the feta cheese sauce reaches your desired consistency. It should be creamy and easily pourable. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Serve the fried mushrooms immediately with the creamy feta cheese sauce on the side for dipping.

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or dried herbs like thyme or oregano to the bread crumbs.
If you don't have a blender, you can mash the feta cheese with a fork and whisk in the lemon juice and water.
To keep the fried mushrooms warm while you prepare the sauce, place them in a preheated oven at 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
Consider adding a pinch of salt to the egg wash to enhance the overall flavor.

    I used goat cheese instead of feta, and it was also delicious.

    The feta sauce was a little too tangy for me, so I added a teaspoon of honey to balance it out.
