step 1
Combine the plain flour (200 g), baking powder (2 tsp), southern fried seasoning (3 tbsp) and all-purpose seasoning (1 tbsp) in a mixing bowl, season with salt and mix well.
step 2
Add the tamarind paste (1 jar), tomato sauce (200 ml), sugar (100 g), garlic (4 cloves), paprika (2 tsp), chilli flakes (2 tsp) and apple cider vinegar (100 ml) to a saucepan along with seasoning. Bring to a boil before lowering to a medium heat.
step 3
Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it turns thickened and slightly darker in colour.
step 4
Meanwhile, cook the fries (600 g) according to pack instructions.
step 5
While the fries cook, fill a large saucepan ¾ full with vegetable oil (as needed) and carefully heat to 180°C.
step 6
In a large, shallow bowl add half the spice mix with the buttermilk (200 ml) and whisk to a batter.
step 7
Dip the mushrooms (600 g) into the batter, letting it soak for a few seconds to absorb. Shake off any excess then drop into the remaining spice mix and toss to coat. You’ll need to do this in batches, placing them onto a lined baking tray.
step 8
Fry the mushrooms in batches for 5-6 mins until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to kitchen paper, then sprinkle with sea salt.
step 9
Transfer the coleslaw (1 tub) to a serving bowl and mix in the harissa paste (1 tbsp). Serve the mushrooms with the fries, ketchup and coleslaw on the side.
