Equipment

Ingredients

1 eggplant 12 oz
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp turmeric
3 tbs green seasoning
1 ½ tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
1 cup water or more as required
2 cups Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

Rinse, dry, and slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch rounds.
In a bowl, combine all ingredients (except eggplant) to create the eggplant batter.
Gradually add water, mixing well until the batter reaches a thick consistency, similar to pancake batter.
Heat vegetable oil in a wok over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, dip a slice of eggplant into the batter and gently drop it into the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding.
Fry until golden brown, then flip to cook the other side. Ensure the eggplant is fully cooked but still firm, and the batter is golden brown.

Notes

Serve hot with mango or tamarind sour and enjoy your crispy eggplant delight!
