Directions

Prep 40 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Slice the eggplant into 1/2 inch rounds. Place the rounds in a colander and sprinkle each slice with salt. Let sit for 20-30 minutes until beads of liquid form on the surface to remove any bitterness.

  2. 2

    Rinse eggplant thoroughly to remove the salt. Pat dry and spread out on a cutting board. Lightly sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Whisk the egg whites in a small bowl for about 60 seconds. Brush the seasoned eggplant slices with a thin layer of egg white on both sides.

  4. 4

    Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a nonstick skillet over medium until hot enough for frying (about 365-375°F).

  5. 5

    Place 3 slices gently into the hot oil, frying 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

  6. 6

    Remove slices from the oil and drain on a drying rack or paper towel. Repeat with remaining slices. Serve and enjoy!
