DEEP FRIED STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Mix the cream cheese, garlic, herbs and salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
• Gently wipe each mushroom with a damp paper towel to remove debris.
• Remove stems from each mushroom by wiggling stem back and forth. It will loosen and come right out.
• Stuff each mushroom with about a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture.
• Now, put the flour, the eggs, and the breadcrumbs in their own separate bowls.
• Dip each mushroom first in the flour, tapping off the excess, next in the eggs to coat and then coat evenly in the breadcrumbs.
• Heat the oil to 375 in a deep fryer if you have one or, use a medium size pot and heat about 2 inches of oil in your pot till hot. Test by dropping a 1 inch piece of bread in the oil. If it sizzles and turns brown in a minute, the oil is ready.
• Put 5 or 6 mushrooms in the hot oil and cook until golden brown, turning them over to brown evenly. This will take about 2 minutes per batch.
• Continue until all the mushrooms are done.
• Serve with a squeeze of lemon or a creamy dipping sauce. See Kate's Tips for an easy mustard sauce.
