Ingredients
-
1 pound wild morel mushrooms
-
½ cup oil for frying
-
2 large eggs
-
¾ cup milk
-
1 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, finely crushed
-
salt and black pepper to taste
Directions
-
Cut any large morels in half. Place morels in a large bowl; cover with cold, lightly salted water. Refrigerate mushrooms for about 5 minutes to loosen any dirt; pour off salted water, rinse, and repeat twice more. Crevices of the mushrooms may harbor tiny stones or even insects. Thoroughly rinse mushrooms a final time and allow to drain on paper towels.
-
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. While oil is heating, beat eggs and milk in a shallow bowl. Coat morels in egg mixture, then toss in cracker crumbs. Carefully place coated morels in heated oil; cook until they are golden brown on the bottom, then flip them over to brown the other side. The mushrooms will cook quickly.
-
When mushrooms are evenly browned, remove them from the pan to drain on a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
