Additional tips

You can also prepare the batter with beer. It will give a delicious flavour and texture to fried Oyster mushrooms. Combine 40 ml of extra virgin olive oil, 250 ml of beer, 160 g of all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Use kitchen tongs to dip the mushrooms into the batter. If you use this batter, then you do not need to use breadcrumbs.
