  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups oil
  • ¼ cup honey

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1.

  2. 2.

    Cover a plate with plenty of flour mixed with a sprinkling of salt. Working in batches, turn the eggplant slices in this so that they are entirely covered with flour, then shake them to remove the excess. Deep-fry in sizzling but not too hot oil, turning the slices over as soon as the first side is brown. Drain on paper towels.
