also works with zucchini

Cut the eggplant into 0.5–1.5 cm thick slices. Rub with 1 teaspoon of salt and let stand. Crush the garlic clove and add it to a pan with oil, frying over medium heat. Remove the garlic from the pan. Crack the egg into a shallow dish. Add the flour and herbs to shallow dishes. Roll the eggplant slices in the herbs, then in the flour, then in the egg. For a thicker coating, roll in the flour and egg more often. Fry on both sides until golden brown. The eggplant slices should be slightly softened on the inside. This makes a large side dish for 2 people, or enough as a snack for 4 people. It’s also delicious with zucchini.
