Eggplant (Aubergine) Patties

Submitted by L. Duch

"Miss Annie inspired me to make this. This is similar to her, "Okra Patties", except that I'm using eggplant and an ingredient or two more. Very tasty and a different way to prepare eggplant than the usual cassarole or breaded and fried eggplant. Hope you enjoy it."
