Fried Eggplant is a mouth-watering, crispy dish that vegetable lovers adore. Eggplant slices are coated in egg and breadcrumbs to create a delicious, golden-brown crust. The soft, juicy interior of the eggplant harmonizes perfectly with the crispy exterior. This dish is easy to prepare and makes a great side dish to meats or can stand alone as a satisfying meal.
Many variations of this traditional dish exist, with people enhancing the flavor with spices or cheese. Fried eggplant is the perfect choice for any occasion!
Wash the eggplants, trim the ends, and slice them into approximately 1 cm thick rounds.
Salt the eggplant rounds and let them sit for 10-15 minutes to release excess moisture. Pat them dry with paper towels.
Dredge the eggplant slices in flour, then dip them in the beaten eggs, and finally coat them evenly with breadcrumbs, ensuring all sides are covered.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the eggplant slices on both sides until golden brown.
Transfer the fried eggplant to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the fried eggplant with a fresh salad, garlic sour cream, or mashed potatoes.
