Ingredients
 
 

  • 8.11 oz black oyster mushrooms washed and dried
  • 2 cups vegetable oil for deep frying or as needed
  • 11.76 fl oz. canned pineapples diced
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper diced
  • ½ onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil for stir frying

Mushroom Coating:

Mushroom Batter:

Sweet and Sour Sauce:

Instructions
 

  • Separate the mushrooms into smaller bunches if needed. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together Mushroom Coating ingredients as listed. Add a few mushrooms into the mixture and dust them until evenly coated. Set aside.
  • In another large bowl, combine Mushroom Batter ingredients. Mix and set aside.
  • Heat 2-inches of oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Place a wooden chopstick into the hot and if bubbles form, it's time to fry.
  • Dip mushroom into the batter and carefully lower it into the hot oil away from you. Fry in small batches on both sides until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Do not overcrowd the oil.
  • Remove fried mushrooms with a slotted spoon. Transfer to a wire rack or paper towel lined plate allowing excess oil to drip off. Then transfer to a large serving plate.
  • In a small bowl, combine Sweet and Sour Sauce ingredients as listed. Set aside.
  • In a large pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil on medium-high heat. Fry onions, bell peppers and pineapples until softened.
  • Pour sauce into the pan and let it come to a boil and simmer until sauce has thickened. Mix and pour your sauce over the battered mushrooms. Serve & enjoy!
