This I saw on the Tony Danza Show by Chef David Burke (01/19/06) and we then made them. I have taken the liberty of tweaking it ever so slightly. Ingredients:
1 lb large white mushroom |
2 cups vegetable oil |
kosher salt, as needed |
fresh ground black pepper (optional) |
chopped fresh parsley, garnish (optional) |
Directions:
1. With a sharp knife or a mandolin, slice each mushroom cap horizontally into very thin, almost translucent slices. 2. In a small saucepan, over medium heat, heat oil to 375ºF. 3. Add mushroom slices, a few at a time, to hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 6 minutes. 4. With a slotted spoon, remove mushroom slices from oil and drain on paper towels; repeat until all mushrooms are cooled. 5. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper if using. 6. Now, sprinkle with a few chopped parsley leaves. 7. The mushroom chips will become crisper as they cool; allow 1 hour. 8. Serve with cocktails, as a soup garnish, on a salad and/or with a steak. |
