Why when I fry eggplant does it turn out so greasy?
what am I doing wrong? My Dad used to (many years ago) like (and fry) eggplant and I don't ever remember it turning out greasy when he used to make it.

are you supposed to coat the eggplant with flour? Will flour take up the grease?
Answers:
Eggplant is tricky. You need to get a cooling rack and lay it down. slice up the eggplant and sprinkle salt on each piece. The salt will draw out all the excess water. Take a couple eggs and salt and pepper. Dunk the eggplant in the egg then in breadcrumbs. fry at 350 (use a thermometer) until golden. Place back on the cooling rack and salt again. pat with a paper towel if still too greasy. Hope this helps.
