I tend to avoid deep-frying anything when possible (apart from this delicious traditional falafel). However, it is, of course, possible to make these as traditional fried oyster mushrooms. Fill a wok/pan with enough oil to be about 1 ½-2 inches deep and heat up. You can test the oil is hot enough by dropping a little of the "batter" in the pan, and it should start bubbling (alternatively, a thermometer should read 350-360ºF/176-182ºC). For perfectly fried oyster mushrooms, drop several in at a time (usually 4-6 pieces, so they don't affect the oil temperature too much) and deep-fry until golden brown in color (usually 2-3 minutes). Remove and place on kitchen towel to drain excess oil - then serve.
