Greetings from Kansas City


After busily visiting the sites in Missouri we arrived at our daughter and son-in-laws apartment to fix dinner. We made Navajo Tacos and Fried Mushrooms. The Navajo Tacos were super easy because we used Rhodes Roll Dough and her deep fryer. Then we battered the mushrooms with tempura batter and fried them until they were golden brown. I tried to imitate the sauce that TGI Friday's used to make for their mushrooms years ago, it turned out pretty good.
Tempura Batter
1 c. ice water
1 egg yolk
3/4 c. flour
1/4 c. cornstarch
Whisk the water and ice with the egg yolk until well blended and a little frothy. Add flour and cornstarch until blended, may be a little lumpy. Chill in refrigerator for an hour. Cover mushrooms and deep fry until golden brown. We also added minced onion, garlic salt, and salt to the tempura and it added a wonderful flavor to the mushrooms. While they were still hot we sprinkled Parmesan Cheese on top.
My Horseradish Sauce
2 T. Horseradish sauce
1 T. mayonnaise
1-2 T. Parmesean Cheese
Mix well.

  1. You forgot to say what we added to the mushrooms...we added a little salt, garlic salt, and minced onion so that it gave it a good flavor. When you take it out of the fryer put it on a paper towel and then sprinkle with parmesean cheese! Yummy!
