Mushroom Mushroom Mushroom - You little fleshy fungi !!
On some dreamy days, I wonder what it would be like to be a gnome and live in a mushroom house - a colourful mushroom house ! Varied coloured mushrooms, in all sizes and shapes, solid coloured ones and the spotted ones - boy! wouldn't that be a pretty picture.
Of course, then I wouldn't be able to take a bite of those 'yummy' looking mushrooms, which are better known as toadstools and are poisonous. And, that's when the salivating dreamy me, finally descends down to earth from dreamland :D .
It was after one such dreamy session that my taste buds made me stir up the below crispy stuffed mushrooms.
INGREDIENTS
Chop veggies finely (including mushroom stalk).
Saute till moisture content evaporates completely.
Add shredded cheese and coriander leaves. Mix well.
Fill each mushroom with the stuffing.
Attach 2 mushroom caps with the help of a tooth pick or skewer.
Dip in batter made of maida, water and salt.
Roll in breadcrumbs till well coated.
Deep fry till golden brown.
Take a bite, relish and join me in dream land with the gnomes :P .
Tips :
Saute the stuffing mix well till it is completely dry as later stages include deep frying too. Retained moisture may lead to the hot oil making funny sounds along with actions (animated hot oil :D) .
