Wow, Sandy, that recipe is really wonderful, it sounds like it would almost be from India? What is "jeera"? I also know eggplant as aubergine, I didn't know "brinjal" was another name, cool. What my mother did, and I do, is to first slice the eggplant into rather thick slices, maybe 1/2", then she salted them and stacked them. They would 'weep' out a lot of the water, and she'd give them a squeeze after about half an hour. Then whisk an egg, dip the brinjal slice in the egg, then into seasoned breadcrumbs. You can then do it again, to make more coating. We heat oil in a cast iron skillet, doesn't have to be deep fried, pop the slices in until they brown on one side, turn, brown on the other, and enjoy! Also, you can put parmesan cheese on it, very good. Thanks for the education, I may try your recipe, Sandy. Although, I might cheat a bit, and use dry roasted peanuts and the frozen peas, hee hee hee. Thanks again, hugs, Marji
