Excellent Fried Eggplant

"Having a garden and growing fresh food is a must for our family. We got lucky and had a great harvest of eggplant last year which prompted me to find ways to cook it. Not wanting to use someone else's, I tried several times until I came up with something my family likes. This is even KID friendly and has great taste...especially with white meat meals."

directions

  • In large skillet put in enough oil (about 1/8 inch deep.)and preheat too medium high.
  • In separate bowl mix egg and milk thoroughly.
  • In another bowl mix together remaining dry ingredients.
  • Slice eggplant 1/4 thick and dip in milk/egg.
  • Dip in dry ingredients and coat both sides.
  • Place in skillet and fry for 2-3 minutes each side, checking to make sure they get golden brown.
  • You will need to add a little oil each time. When the crumbs in the skillet start getting too much or burning, remove before starting next batch of eggplant.
  • Place on separate plate covered with paper towel until ready to serve to remove excess oil.
  • SPECIAL NOTE: For a little added extra flavor, use bacon grease instead of oil.
  • SPECIAL NOTE: If you want a little something to jazz these up a little and are having a salad, dip them in some Ranch Dressing. I have a scratch recipe that goes great with it.
