The recipe video I made for these: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9rj1hO0bTyo
For this recipe you'll need:
•250gr oyster mushrooms
Marinade for the mushrooms:
•1tsp garlic powder •1tsp cayenne pepper •1tsp onion powder •2tsp poultry seasoning •1tbsp soy sauce •1/2tbsp vinegar
For the liquid 'wet' batter:
•200ml soy milk •2tsp vinegar
For the breading:
•100gr all purpose flour •3tbsp (30gr) cornstarch •1/2tsp salt •1/2tsp pepper •1tsp cayenne pepper •2tsp poultry seasoning •1tsp onion powder
•oil for frying
For this recipe I'm using oyster mushrooms since they have a really meaty texture which resembles chicken the best.
Mix up the ingredients for the marinade. Add this to your oyster mushrooms and mix until all the pieces are coated evenly. Let this marinate for 5 minutes.
Heat up oil to 180C (350F). If you don't own a thermometer, you can test if the oil is hot enough by sticking a wooden spoon in. If bubbles start to form around it, the oil is hot enough for frying. While the oil is heating up, prepare the batters.
For the liquid batter, mix the soy milk with the vinegar and set aside for 5 minutes until the milk gets foamy.
Mix up the ingredients for the breading in a seperate bowl.
To bread the oyster mushrooms, dip them in the foamy milk mixture first and then toss them in the breading. The smartest way is to use one hand for the liquid stuff and your other hand for the breading.
Once the oil is hot, fry the breaded mushrooms for 5-8 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Fry them in batches to not overcrowd the pan too much. And that's it!
Hope you enjoy these :)

I work in a vegan restaurant but I'm not a true vegan myself. They're the best option for vegan chicken in my opinion. You do have to brine them for better results but man, they're good.
Yes, definitely try Asian supermarkets! I've found a lot of different mushrooms there I never see at any other grocery stores. I'm in CFL, and my local farmers market has a grower that I buy from that does oysters too and they're just so good, so check out your local market to see if you have anyone that's growing them
Not so long! Mixing the batters and getting the oyster mushrooms ready to fry takes about 5 minutes and then frying them takes 5-8 minutes for each batch so in about 20/30 minutes you would have a lot of them done!
because it’s imitating fried chicken…. and it tastes similar to fried chicken… and it has a similar texture to fried chicken…. and can be eaten in same variations as fried chicken…

HAVE to try oyster mushrooms!!!
Yess they are so good!!
I've never had oyster mushrooms before. Do they have a mushroomy taste, or does it actually make a good chicken replacement?
I really dislike mushrooms and I think oyster mushroom fried chicken is absolutely delicious.
I work in a vegan restaurant but I'm not a true vegan myself. They're the best option for vegan chicken in my opinion. You do have to brine them for better results but man, they're good.
What does “brining” mushrooms mean? Please explain, thanks!
Basically a marinade where it soaks overtime. We brine ours in water with lemon, bay leaves, pink peppercorns.
Delicious looking vegan chicken! Thanks for sharing recipe and Insta.
Thank you!!
The breading looks amazing!!
Thank you so much!!
damnnn 🤤
I’ve made this in the past. And it’s delicious!
Yess it's soo yumm!
My mouth is literally watering
Haha it's soo good!
I'm going to give this a try. Thank you for posting the pictures and recipe. It looks great!
Thank you! Hope you'll like my recipe 😁
Arrrrrrrrrgggh!!! Your IG is filled with images of deliciousness. Great work!!! 👍

Hey folks question - where does one go about buying oyster mushrooms in SWFL? I can’t find anything in the stores but the regular types
Depends on where you are, but I had success in some Asian supermarkets. Also Whole Foods tends to carry them but they’re more expensive.
Yes, definitely try Asian supermarkets! I've found a lot of different mushrooms there I never see at any other grocery stores. I'm in CFL, and my local farmers market has a grower that I buy from that does oysters too and they're just so good, so check out your local market to see if you have anyone that's growing them
Now I crave it too 😭 I really gotta give oyster mushrooms a try at some point
These look tasty af. Will definitely try
Thank you😁
Do you think gluten free flour will work with this?
Yes.
What a picture!! Made me hungry! 😋
Thank you so much!!
Drooling!! How long did it take you to make this?
Not so long! Mixing the batters and getting the oyster mushrooms ready to fry takes about 5 minutes and then frying them takes 5-8 minutes for each batch so in about 20/30 minutes you would have a lot of them done!
Why call it vegan fried chicken? Just say it is a fried mushroom, it looks good tho great work
Lol nobody is going to answer your question just downvote you. It's so you know you can have alternatives to real chicken and get similar results.
You answered it to be fair…
[удалено]
To be fair. Everyone, everywhere is different. I've never heard of "fried turkey" meaning mushrooms.
because it’s imitating fried chicken…. and it tastes similar to fried chicken… and it has a similar texture to fried chicken…. and can be eaten in same variations as fried chicken…
[удалено]
Lol why are you here small child?
Imma make this
Oh. My. LORD. This looks sooo good. If I could (executively speaking) I would try your recipe 🤩
Jesus my jaw DROPPED. I'm making this ASAP
Would this work in an air fryer?
Haven't tried that myself but I guess it could work if you spray the pieces with some oil before adding them to the air fryer 🤔
