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 Grated parmesan cheese
MMMMM----------------------FOR DEEP FRYING---------------------------
Olive oil
Sauté 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.

... It was 2:00 p.m., too early for wine but not for chocolate.
