I loved these! I just had 3 mushrooms, so reduced the dipping ingredients. Just did 1 egg and some milk, and 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs. Seasoned both with seasoned salt and lots of pepper. Also thyme in the breading like she says. Still had some left of both after dipping 3. Fried in mix of vegetable oil and butter. I've never had portobellos before, and these tasted like country fried steak! Delicious with the mashed potatoes and white gravy. One other member of my family liked, one didn't. That was ok by me, more for me! I'd use this cooking technique to do cube steaks and chicken also. Thank you so much for this fantastic preparation method!
