Fried Eggplant

Ingredients

1 large eggplant 
1/3 cup all-purpose flour 
1/2 cup olive oil or corn oil 
Garlic Yogurt Sauce or Yogurt Sauce with Pine Nuts and Garlic
Salt

Serves 4

Directions

1. Remove the stem and hull from the eggplant. 

2. Peel the eggplant lengthwise in 1/2-inch strips, leaving 1/2-inch strips of skin between, making a striped design. Cut crosswise into 3/8-inch-thick slices. Lay on paper towels.

3. Sprinkle the eggplant strips liberally with the salt. Weigh down with a heavy object and let stand 30 minutes.

4. Rinse and dry thoroughly with fresh paper towels. Coat lightly with the flour.

5. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the eggplant slices, and fry until lightly browned on both sides.

6. Drain on paper towels and arrange on a serving platter.

7. Serve chilled as an appetizer or as a side dish with the yogurt sauce.
