Fried Parmesan Eggplant

By Diana Rattray, About.com

Fried eggplant strips with seasoned cornmeal coating, topped with Parmesan cheese. Serve these eggplant strips with a little marinara sauce on the side, if desired.

Ingredients:

  • 1 eggplant (about 1 pound)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

Peel eggplant, and cut into 2- x 3/4-inch strips; sprinkle with salt, and let stand 30 minutes. Pat dry. Combine cornmeal, pepper, and garlic powder. Dredge eggplant in cornmeal mixture, and fry in deep, hot oil (375°) until golden brown, cooking only a few at a time. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Serves 4 to 6.
