Growing up, one of my very favorite things for my mother to cook with dinner was fried eggplant. It wasn’t something we ate often, so I was always thrilled when I spotted a beautiful eggplant sitting in the fridge after a trip to the grocery store. To me, it’s the coolest looking produce in the market. The shape, the color, the size…love it.
It’s has lots to offer nutritionally, as well. Did you know:
- Eggplant is low in saturated fat, sodium, and cholesterol?
- Eggplant is high in dietary fiber, folate, potassium, manganese, vitamin C, vitamin K, thiamin, niacin, vitamin B6, pantothenic acid, magnesium, phosphorus and copper?
It’s good for you. But I’m going to change that. Because I grew up country-fried and it’s what I do.
So…
Grab a skillet and put enough oil in it to cover the bottom. Heat the oil over medium-high heat.
Select a beautiful eggplant and lop of the ends like this:
Then cut it in half.
Slice it into 1/4″ slices.
Coat each slice in a flour, salt & pepper mixture.
Dip in milk. Or evaporated milk. Or buttermilk.
And dip in flour again.
When your oil is hot and ready to go, lay your slices in there. Cook each side until they reach a deep golden brown or whatever level of doneness that appeals to you.
Drain them on a plate covered with a paper towel.
And the special ingredient??
Sugar.
Lightly sprinkle them with sugar while they’re still hot. Trust me. It’s worth it.
The whole family loves them and while it may not be the healthiest way to serve eggplant, it’s a way to get them in kids’ tummies. Yummy comfort food.
I’m curious, though….how do you prepare eggplant?
Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a
sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the
shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off
topic but I had to tell someone!
This is a great resource. Ill visit again.

Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any

Excellent blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
