Fat Ronnie’s Deep Fried Fresh Mushroom’s
This one is a blast from the past. We ate these years ago. Fat Ronnie’s was located in Topeka, KN, best deep fried mushrooms ever, and they were served in brown paper bags.
2 C. Flour
1 1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Ground Pepper
1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
1 C. Buttermilk
8 oz Fresh Mushrooms (washed, dried, and stems removed)
Vegetable Oil (for frying)
1 1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Ground Pepper
1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
1 C. Buttermilk
8 oz Fresh Mushrooms (washed, dried, and stems removed)
Vegetable Oil (for frying)
Place buttermilk in bowl and set aside. Mix flour, salt, pepper, and baking powder in separate bowl. Heat oil at 375 for frying.
Coat mushrooms with flour mixture, dip mushrooms in buttermilk, and finally coat mushrooms with flour mixture again. Place mushrooms in hot oil and do not over crowd. Oil should be about 375 for deep frying. When mushrooms turn a golden brown remove and drain on absorbent paper towel. More salt may be added to mushrooms for your taste. Fried mushrooms should be served immediately for the best taste.
I have found they make a great appetizer with a cheese sauce spooned on top or used as a dip.

Over the years she has developed many recipes that taste just like the restaurant originals that you would normally go out to try. 
Fat Ronnie’s was owned an operated by my father, Fat Ronnie Sr. It brings me a real sense of pride to know that his food was so well remembered that people still make it 35 years later.
I just gotta say, if Fat Ronnie wants to share any more of his recipes, I would be glad to put them up. I have fond memories of that place!
I’ll be sure to pass that along. Most of his recipes are resting safely in his head for now. He hasn’t even given them to his own son! The image you used for the mushrooms and for the Fried onions are pretty spot on. When we were talking about them, he made it a point to let me know that they *always* filled up a brown paper bag.
For those who didn’t go to Fat Ronnie’s he served everything in paper bags, you would walk out of there with fresh steaming bags of fried goodies.
