AIR FRYER MUSHROOMS | VEGAN OYSTER MUSHROOM AIR FRIED

Steps:

• Clean mushroom and dry them well. Now prepare a slurry of buttermilk or vegan buttermilk with rice flour and ½ tsp. salt. Marinate mushroom in the slurry for about 30 minutes.
• Now take all the spices and add to all-purpose flour and keep it ready.
• Pre-heat Airfryer at 180 C or 360 F for 5 minutes.
• After marination, take out each marinated mushroom and immerse it in the seasoned flour mix till well coated. Lightly brush with oil. Do this to all the mushroom and keep aside.
• Brush the air fryer basket and arrange the mushroom in one row. Air fry for 15 minutes at 180 C or 360 F. Turn once in the middle. Now turn up the temperature to 200 C or 390 F and Air fry for 4 minutes for a golden colour.
• Take it out and serve out. Your crispy Air fryer mushrooms are ready to serve. Have with dipping sauce, mayo or even ketchup. It's super delicious.
• Serve them hot.

CRISPY AIR FRIED OYSTER MUSHROOMS (OR OVEN ROASTED)

Steps:

• Combine the cornstarch with your spices of choice and the salt and mix. At the same time, prepare the vegan buttermilk by combining the milk and lemon juice (it's best to let this sit for 5-10 minutes).
• Place the cornstarch bowl next to the buttermilk bowl, next to the breadcrumb bowl, next to your baking tray or air fryer basket to create a simple "dredging station."
• Prepare and clean the oyster mushrooms (read FAQs for tips) and allow them to dry if needed.
• Cover the mushrooms with the cornstarch mixture before dipping each mushroom into the vegan buttermilk and then the breadcrumbs, making sure to coat it well. Repeat until all the mushrooms are fully coated.
• For this recipe, I've tested air-frying and roasting the oyster mushrooms, so you can do either.Drizzle or spray some oil (spray is best if you have one) over the mushrooms, then arrange them in a single layer within your Air Fryer basket or an oven tray (to roast). It's best to lightly grease the pan/air fryer tray to make sure none stick.
• Air-fryer: cook the mushrooms, untouched, for 12 minutes at 400ºF/200ºC.Oven: roast the mushrooms for 20 minutes at 400ºF/200ºC.Once cooked, you should have golden brown and super crispy oyster mushrooms ready to enjoy!
• Fridge: store any leftover crispy oyster mushrooms in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days, lined with a paper towel. They will soften over time - however, you can re-crisp them up somewhat when reheating.You may also be able to freeze the leftover fried oyster mushrooms for later and reheat with an air fryer/oven - though I haven't tried, so I can't guarantee results.Reheat: while technically you can microwave these, the results will be soft. For that reason, I recommend broiling them
