Directions
Eggplant (Aubergine) Patties or Eggplant Fritters, A quick and easy side dish or appetizer, and an alternative to fried eggplant strips Could easily be made into a parmigiana verison with a bit of sauce and some good mozzarella cheese , YUM! Eggplant wasn’t part of the menu when I was growing up, but I’ve acquired a taste for it (thanks to a vegetarian daughter) This is truly quick and easy, as well as delicious and versatile Even my carnivore husband gave it five stars Thanks for broadening my veggie horizons , Great recipe! I cut out the salt, and only used the garlic salt I also added about 1/2 tsp of chili powder to give it just a little kick It turned out great Thanks for sharing!
