For the dipping, mix the flour, cornstarch, nutritional yeast, and salt in a bowl, whisk in the milk and soda water, and add the spices. Crunch topping, blend the cornflakes and mix with the corn starch and salt (I like to add popped popcorn, a bit chunky to this mix, as it adds so much texture) Dip the mushrooms in the flour mixture, remove with a fork to remove that excess moisture and then roll in the cornflake topping). Deep fry or air-fry/bake until crispy. Takes about 15 minutes in the air-fryer and 20 minutes in the oven. Once golden, mix the bbq sauce ingredients and dip or brush the “chicken pieces’ until covered. Bake again for another 5-8 minutes. Serve with some spiced vegan mayonnaise.
