JUMBO
EGGPLANT FRIES
These fries are so tasty! If you like eggplant then these fries are
better than French Fries any day and so much better for you! I love eggplant, so I'm always wanting to do something different with it. I especially love Japanese eggplant, as it is so much milder in taste, plus the skin is not so tough.
1 large Japanese eggplant
Breading:
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (the kind in a can) (30 mL)
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning, (2 mL)
(herb mixture)
1/8 tsp salt (0.5 mL)
1/8 tsp black pepper (0.5 mL)
2 eggs
1/4 cup light-tasting olive oil (60 mL)
Wash
eggplant. Slice in half and in half
again and again until you have nice jumbo size fries and cut those fries in
half to get the right length.
Breading: On dinner
plate, combine Gluten-Free Bake Mix, Parmesan cheese, Italian
seasoning, salt and pepper.
In
small bowl, beat two eggs with fork. Dip
eggplant fries in egg and then in “breading.” Place in large nonstick skillet with 2 tbsp (30 mL) hot oil. Fry until brown on one side, turn over and
fry on the other side until golden brown both sides and tender to the touch of
a fork piercing them. Add a little extra
oil if needed. Repeat until all Jumbo
Eggplant Fries are cooked. Serve
immediately or keep warm, uncovered, in a warm oven until serving time.
Helpful Hint: If you don't want to make up the bake mix, use ground almonds instead and if you have coconut flour, use a little of that too.
