re: How Do You Make Great Fried Eggplant?

all copeland's does is slice then, and then seasoned flour, then eggwash then Italian breadcrumbs then fry in shorting at 375* for 1.5-2 minutes.


The key is high heat, and a good base covering. Corn starch actually works best, but you can use flour. Just make sure the eggplant are a little wet.

What's strange is some places around here like the Country Club will serve eggplant with powdered sugar instead of marinara. Crazy fist time I tried it. It's mainly so people don't get red on their white linen and seersucker.
