Must-try: Baked garlic mushroom bombs

Meenakshi
These baked mushroom bombs are crispy from outside due to the bread crumbs and have a coating that will melt in the mouth. When you munch on these mushroom bombs you will taste an explosion of the garlicky and creamy crust before you start to chew on the perfectly baked mushrooms.

Ingredients
  

  • 10 oz White button mushrooms or Baby Bella (282 gms)
  • 1 medium size Boiled potato
  • ¼ cup Plain yogurt
  • 3 ½ tbsp Water
  • 3 cloves Garlic (finely grated or use a garlic press)
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Chaat masala
  • ¼ cup Cilantro (finely chopped)
  • ½ cup Bread crumbs for coating
  • Cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Take a medium-sized potato. Make cuts on each edge of the potato and bake in a microwave for 5-6 minutes. Alternately boil the potato.
  • Let the potato cool completely before removing the skin.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 0F.
  • Clean the mushrooms using a kitchen towel and cut off the dirty stems.
  • Into a bowl, using the fine side of the grater, finely grate the potato.
  • To the grated potato, add yogurt, garlic, cilantro, and all the spices.
  • Mix well and use 3-4 tablespoon of water to fix the consistency. Keep the consistency thick.
  • Coat the mushrooms well in the batter.
  • Roll the coated mushrooms in the bread crumbs to cover them fully.
  • Place the mushrooms evenly on the parchment-lined baking tray.
  • Spray the mushrooms generously with cooking spray (or carefully brush them with some oil).
  • Bake in a preheated oven while turning in between. It should take between 25-30 minutes depending on the size of the mushrooms.
  • Remove from the oven as they start to sizzle.
  • Serve hot and enjoy as such or with sauce or chutney of your choice.

Notes

  • I like to microwave my potatoes as it is quick and hassle-free. You can certainly boil them. 
  • You can certainly deep fry or shallow fry these mushroom bombs. They will never fail to please you.
  • If baking, the baking time can vary depending on the size of the mushrooms. Just keep an eye and remove when they start to sizzle.
  • Try to use relatively equal-sized mushrooms, so that all get equally and well baked.
  • If you feel that your mushrooms are looking dry, remove them from the oven and give a spray of cooking oil and continue baking.
