Ingredients

  • 1 eggplant
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/3 parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 tomatoes according to eggplant size
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 clove garlic

Directions

1To begin making the fried eggplant and tomatoes, cut the eggplants into somewhat thick, circle slices. In the large bowl, mix salt and water, place eggplants, and let it soak for about 20 to 30 minutes. Soaking an eggplant in salty water makes bitterness go away. After the eggplant is done soaking, lay it out on the paper towel to dry. While the eggplant is drying, we will prepare the batter.

2In the bowl, mix dry ingredients, including cheese, add eggs and water. Mix well and set it aside for about 10 minutes. While we are waiting for the batter to rest, we will dust the eggplant circles in flour.

3Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in the frying pan on medium-high heat. Dip the eggplant into the batter and set it in the hot pan. Fry it on each side till golden brown. Do that till all the eggplant is fried.

4It is time to assemble! Cut the tomatoes into circle slices that are a bit thinner than eggplant slices were. In a small bowl, crush garlic and add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise. Mix well. Spread a thin layer of this sauce on the eggplant and cover it with tomatoes. Garnish it with fresh parsley or chives.
