Beer-Battered King Trumpet Mushrooms [Vegan]

Ingredients

• 400 g King Trumpet Mushroom steamed and sliced

For the Dusting:

• 1/2 cup Rice Flour ( Note1)
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt

For the Beer Batter

• 500 ml Icy Cold Beer ( Note2)
• 1 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour(Note3)
• 1/2 cup Rice Flour (Note1)
• 2 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Garlic Powder
• 1 tablespoon Onion Powder
• 1 teaspoon Sweet Paprika

For the Deep-Fry Oil:

• 8-10 cup Cooking Oil( Note4)

Preparation

1. Steam the King trumpet mushrooms in the steamer for 20-25 minutes( Using a damp cloth to wipe the king trumpet mushrooms before cooking if they’re dirty), then leave them in a fridge and let them cool down.( Note 5)
2. Meanwhile we make beer batter- pour the beer into a medium-sized mixing bowl, then place all-purpose flour, rice flour, baking powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and sweet paprika into the beer, using a whisk to mix all these ingredients together until no lumps are visible. Leave the bear-batter in the fridge prior to cooking.
3. Slice steamed king trumpet mushrooms into approx. 5mm thick slices.
4. Heat up cooking oil in a pot or a wok to175-180°C ( 347-356°F .) Prepare rice flour in a bowl for dusting, lightly dust all the sliced mushrooms with rice flour.
5. When the oil is hot enough, dip sliced mushrooms into the beer batter and scrape off excessive batter around the mixing bowl then drop them into the hot oil ( One by one!) Don’t overcrowd them in the pot( I cook 5-6 pieces at one time, give them space to float around) Cooking them till golden color then flip to the other side, take them out until both sides are a golden color, then onto paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
6. Cook them batch by batch, Must clean the oil by using a fine sieve between batches, otherwise, the burnt bits will stick to the beer batter( Note 6)
7. Serve hot with lime, lemongrass, and herbs dipping sauce
