Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Gather the ingredients: 2 medium eggplants, about 600 g total; Salt for drawing out moisture; About 60 g flour; Oil for frying.

  2. Step 2

    Peel the eggplants and cut into fairly large chunks, about 3 cm. Sprinkle with salt, place in a colander and leave for about 2 hours.

  3. Step 3

    Pat very dry, removing excess salt from the surface. Toss the chunks lightly in flour and shake off the excess.

  4. Step 4

    Heat oil in a heavy pan with ample headroom, to approximately 175°C. Fry in small batches, turning until the pieces are golden outside and tender all the way through.

  5. Step 5

    Lift out, drain on kitchen paper and serve hot.
