1

Slice the eggplant into rounds and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.

3

Prepare three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with bread crumbs.

4

Dip each eggplant slice first in flour, then in egg, and finally coat with bread crumbs.

5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

6

Fry the breaded eggplant slices in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

7

Remove the fried eggplant and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

8

In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped parsley, cumin, paprika, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, and chili flakes to make a sauce.

9

Serve the fried eggplant warm, drizzled with the garlic sauce.
