fried eggplant

Crispy cooked aubergine

Fried eggplant is eggplant that has been sliced and cooked in oil until golden and tender.

The preparation appears across many cuisines—breaded and fried for Italian eggplant parmesan, battered for Japanese tempura, or simply pan-fried with garlic in Middle Eastern dishes.

We ordered the fried eggplant as an appetizer.
