Fried Fungus

They recently stopped serving the fried portabella mushrooms at The Chimes. I was devastated by this menu change. I was doing fine until about 2 weeks ago when the fried portabella mushroom cravings attacked. This weekend I gave in and made my own. They turned out surprisingly - to me at least- well.

Fried Portabella Mushrooms
4 Portabella Mushrooms, sliced
~2c Flour
~3 Eggs, beaten
Salt
Red Pepper

Sauce
2.5 T German Mustard
2T Mayonnaise

Heat frying oil to ~350 degrees. Season the flour to taste with the salt and pepper. Coat the mushroom slices with egg and dip in flour. Fry Mushrooms until golden brown. Mix the German Mustard and Mayonnaise to make a dip for the mushrooms.
