Non ho mai mangiato melanzane così deliziose! Ricetta marocchina di melanzane

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Vegetable oil is often less expensive and has a high smoke point.

Slice eggplant into 1/4-inch rounds and sprinkle with salt; let sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.

Rinse eggplant slices under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for bread crumbs mixed with parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano.

Dredge each eggplant slice in flour, shaking off excess, then dip into eggs, and finally coat with the bread crumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.

Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 350°F.

Fry eggplant slices in batches, without overcrowding, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove fried eggplant and drain on paper towels; season with additional salt if desired.

Serve warm, garnished with fresh basil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
