How to cook Fried Mushroom Cake
-
Prepare the ingredients
Wash and prepare the ingredients as follows:
- Kimchi mushrooms: cut into pieces about 2cm long.
- Chicken leg mushrooms, carrots: cut into dice.
- Coriander: chop finely.
- Garlic: peel and mince.
- Chili: chop finely.
-
Making dipping sauce
First, add 20ml of fish sauce, 60ml of lemon juice, 65gr of sugar, and 30ml of chili sauce into a large bowl and stir well to dissolve the sugar. Then, add garlic and chili, and mix well.
-
Making cake batter
First, you mix 250gr of flour, 1 chicken egg, 160ml of water, 1/2 tablespoon of seasoning powder, and 1/3 tablespoon of pepper using a whisk for about 2 minutes.
Next, add all the kim chi mushrooms, chicken thigh mushrooms, carrots, and coriander (prepared in the previous step) along with 200gr of minced pork, and mix well.
-
Fry the cake
Place a pan with oil on the stove, wait for the oil to heat up, then use a ladle to scoop the batter into the frying oil. Use chopsticks to push the batter into the oil while gently pressing the batter down to form a round shape with suitable thickness so that the cake cooks inside.
Use chopsticks to flip the cake until both sides are the desired golden crispy color, then remove to drain the oil.
Tip:
- To check if the oil is hot, dip the end of the chopsticks into the oil; if bubbles form around the edges, the oil is hot.
- When adding the batter to the frying pan, keep some distance between the pieces to prevent them from sticking together.
- The cake should be made with a moderate thickness so that the inside is cooked properly. If the cake is too thick, the inside may not cook through, resulting in a less crispy cake.
- When the cake has a moderate golden color, you should remove it. Avoid letting the cake turn a deep golden color as you desire because during the time the cake is removed, the oil will continue cooking the cake and may turn it dark, even resembling burnt, making the cake look less appealing.

Finished Product
The fried mushroom cake has a golden color, served with a sweet and sour dipping sauce, and you can eat it endlessly without getting tired of it. Moreover, the cake has a moderate crispiness, combined with the chewiness of the chicken leg mushrooms and the crunchy texture of the carrots, you will surely fall in love with this snack!
Tips for Successful Fried Mushroom Cake
- You should cut the chicken leg mushrooms and carrots into moderate dice, avoiding pieces that are too large or too small, as this will affect the crispiness and chewiness of the mushroom cake.
- Make the cake with a moderate thickness so that it is cooked through while remaining crispy and delicious.
- For the leftover oil: strain it through a sieve (you can add a layer of oil-absorbing paper) to remove any remaining food particles. Then, wait for the oil to cool and store it in a glass jar with a tight lid for reuse.
