Crispy Deep Fried Enoki Mushrooms  

Food52 Resident Yi Jun Loh returns to share his version of fried enoki mushrooms. This crunchy treat is thinly sliced, dunked in a quick batter, then dropped in hot oil for a minute or two. They take on a golden hue and are seasoned with good old salt and pepper. Or try a dusting of homemade mala spice powder for some heat! GET THE RECIPE ►► f52.co/3GZS9Lw
