Directions

  1. Wash the eggplants, dry them, remove the ends, and cut them into slices about 3 to 5 mm thick. ≈ 8 min
  2. Place the slices in a gratin dish or a soufflé dish, and generously cover them with salt. Let them rest for about 45 to 60 minutes (you may need to drain off any water that has formed several times).
  3. Lay the slices on a baking sheet lined with paper towels and press them firmly. ≈ 4 min
  4. Replace the absorbent paper several times, until the discs are thoroughly soaked and dry. ≈ 3 min
  5. Next, turn the now thinner discs over and place them in the flour, removing any excess flour. ≈ 3 min
  6. In a small pan, pour in about 1 cm of oil paint and heat it up.
  7. Arrange the eggplant slices next to each other and grill them for about 2 to 3 minutes, turning frequently, until they are a beautiful golden color.
  8. Next, remove them from the pan, pat them dry on paper towels, let them cool, and season them to your liking with lemon juice and pepper.
