Deep fried Eggplant with Paprika and Sea Salt | 香炸矮瓜



If you don't mind to deep fry at home, this recipe will be an easy, delicious, and fit-for-budget option for your lunch and dinner.  Try to use a wide but deep frying pan to do the "shallow-pan" frying method.  It can fry many eggplant slices at one time without using so much oil.

Whenever I make this dish, I ensure I make a large enough portion to last for two days.  Overnight, the eggplant will become softer and the taste more integrated.  Eating it with a bowl of piping hot rice is happiness.

Other than paprika, you can serve it with scallion, fried shallot, five spice powder, or a dollop of yogurt.
