Fried Mushrooms with Feta Cheese Sauce

Ingredients

• Mushrooms:
• 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1 (16 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
• 3 eggs, beaten
• Feta Sauce:
• 3 ounces crumbled feta cheese
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• Water, or as needed

Directions

Heat oil in a small saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Spread bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Dip mushroom slices in beaten egg, dredge them in bread crumbs to coat, and cook them in hot oil until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Repeat until all mushrooms are cooked; drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

Blend feta cheese and lemon juice in a blender. Stream water into feta mixture as it blends until you get a desirable consistency. Serve with mushrooms.
