4 slice

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

First prepare the aubergine, thinly peel it. I use my potatoe peeler for this

* Step 2

Slice the aubergine about 1/2 an inch or slightly thinner slices

* Step 3

Put all the slices into the milk in a bowl, make sure that they are all covered . I place a plate on top to push them all down into the milk leave ti stand for about 3 hours in fridge.

* Step 4

Drain the milk of the aubergines and pat the aubergines dry. Discard the milk.

* Step 5

Whisk the eggs . Season the panko or breadcrumbs with cayenne pepper and salt or salt substitute. Add the flour into a deep plate . Have the three dishes side by side . Flour, egg and panko . First add a slice into the flour from both sides , tap off the excess flour then add the slice into the egg , ensure that it is covered from both sides , hold between your fingers and let the excess egg drip back into plate with egg. Then roll the slice into the panko or finer breadcrumbs .

* Step 6

Finish off until all slices are done .

* Step 7

In the meantime heat the oil add about 3-5 slices depending on size into pan . Cook the aubergine slices until crispy and golden brown . The trick is to keep the temperature of the oil an even temperature. They cook very fast .

* Step 8

Serve hot drizzled with honey and a teaspoon of my boozy cranberry sauce or fruit sauce of choice

* Step 9

Follow the instruction for my the batter recipe with the attached recipe here for batter recipe.

* Step 10

The outside on both breadcrumb or batter should be crisp and golden , the inside a soft moist Aubergine treat. Accompany both with honey and sauce .

* Step 11
