Ingredients

  • 400g large oyster mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup rice flour
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup neutral frying oil
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 thinly sliced scallions

Instructions

1
Begin by gently tearing the oyster mushrooms into large, wing-sized clusters.
2
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, rice flour, and smoked paprika.
3
In a separate small bowl, whisk the miso, maple syrup, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth.
4
Heat the neutral oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
5
Dredge the mushroom clusters thoroughly in the dry flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
6
Carefully drop the mushrooms into the hot oil, frying in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until deeply golden and shatteringly crisp.
7
Remove to a wire rack to drain briefly.
8
While still hot, transfer the mushrooms to a large mixing bowl, pour over the miso-maple glaze, and toss quickly to coat every crevice.
9
Garnish immediately with fresh scallions and toasted sesame seeds for an irresistible crunch.
