Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Whisk ale, flour, sesame seeds, cornstarch, and baking powder together in a large bowl; batter will be thick and slightly lumpy.
Step 3
Dip mushroom strips into batter, 7 to 8 at a time; shake off excess.
Step 4
Lower mushroom strips carefully into the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining mushroom strips.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon baking powder
oil for frying
2 cups bitter ale (such as Goose Island Honkers Ale®)
3 large portobello mushroom caps, cut into 1/2-inch slices
