Directions:
- Prepare the Mushrooms:
- Start by cleaning the mushrooms thoroughly, making sure to remove any dirt or debris. Once cleaned, remove their stems and set the mushrooms aside.
- Season the Mushrooms:
- Sprinkle salt and pepper over the mushrooms to season them to your liking. This step adds a layer of flavor that will complement the crispy coating.

- First, coat the seasoned mushrooms in flour, making sure to shake off any excess. This step ensures the egg and breadcrumbs will adhere better to the mushrooms.
- Next, dip the floured mushrooms into beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off.
- In a separate bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with oregano and thyme. Roll the egg-coated mushrooms in this breadcrumb mixture until they are fully covered. The herbs in the breadcrumbs will add a delightful flavor to the mushrooms.
- Fry the Mushrooms:
- Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the mushrooms and fry them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
