Eggplants in Batter
Description
Suitable for both festive occasions and everyday meals. I first tried batter-fried eggplants—the recipe is below—at my friend’s country house. As always, each skilled cook brought along some tasty treat she had prepared at home in advance. Of course, I had tried various vegetables made this way (in batter), but eggplants are something else entirely. At our gatherings they were an instant hit and still disappear in no time. Since then, I often make batter-fried eggplants. And if you get creative and make several different sauces, success is guaranteed for you and your batter-fried eggplants! Give it a try. Can be served warm or chilled.
