Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium eggplant
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 -1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4-1/2 cup plan breadcrumbs
  • oil for frying

Instructions

  • Preheat about 2 inches of oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Cut of tip and peel eggplant. Using a sharp knife slice eggplant into 1/8 inch circles. Then slice in half. You want them to be about the width of two fingers. Pat dry with paper towels.
  • Combine flour, salt and pepper in a resealable bag.
  • In a bowl, beat together eggs. Set aside.
  • On a plate mix together Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs.
  • In batches, place eggplant slices in flour and shake to coat. Then dip slices in egg and press into the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture to lightly coat.
  • Once oil reaches 350 degrees, begin frying the chips in batches. (If you don't have a thermometer, drop a little flour in and if it sizzles it's ready) Fry 3-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to paper towels. Repeat with remaining eggplant.
  • Sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve hot.
