Battered Shaggy Ink Caps recipe, eat well on universal credit

Shaggy Ink Caps (Coprinus comatus) as a very safe beginners foraged Mushroom. There’s nothing which looks much like them which will do you any harm. However they have a very short shelf life and can be a bit slimy if you just throw them in a pan and fry them. But battered they were really good.

4 Tbsp of Gram Flour
5 Tbsps of Cornflour
Salt & fresh ground Black Pepper to season
2 Tsps of Baking Powder
2 Tsps of Turmeric
1 TSp of Garlic Granules
1 Tsp of Onion Salt
Soda Water

Method:-

(1) Cut the stalk off the Mushrooms.
(2) Keep 1 Tbsp of Cornflour aside.
(3) Mix the remaining ingredients to form a thick Batter.
(4) Damp the Mushrooms with a little Water and roll the in Cornflour.
(5) Coat with the Batter Mix.
(6) Deep fry at 160c until the Batter is crispy.
