Step 1
Start by heating some oil in a small pan until it’s nice and hot—around 375°F (190°C) if you have a thermometer. Pour some bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Dip each mushroom slice into beaten egg, then coat it well with the bread crumbs. Fry the mushrooms in the hot oil until they turn golden brown, which should take about 5 to 6 minutes. Work in batches if needed, and once they’re done, set them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 2
While the mushrooms are frying, blend the feta cheese with lemon juice until smooth. Add a little water bit by bit as you blend until the mixture reaches a creamy, spreadable consistency. Serve this tangy feta dip alongside the crispy mushrooms and enjoy!
