Aloha Nalanis Kitchen ohana, I been on a small kine break and now I am back. My husband and I are on a vegetarian diet right now. I do this once and a while to detox and cleanse. If done right...you can get all you need from vegetables including protein. Check out this recipe for Breaded Eggplant serve with green beans, and quinoa to make it a full dinner !
Breaded Egg plant
Ingredients
1 Large peeled and sliced Eggplant
Salt to drench egg plant
2 eggs
3 cups bread crumbs
1 cup flour
2 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
Directions
Place peeled and sliced egg plants on a pan, coat with sea salt and let sit for 30 mins. This will draw out any extra moisture. While you are waiting for the eggplant, prepare 3 separate dishes for dipping, flour mixed with cajun seasoning on one, mixed eggs in one and bread crumbs in the last. Heat oil for frying in a large pan. Before cooking rinse off salt from eggplants, then dip each egg plant in first the flour mixture, then the egg, and finally the bread crumbs. Cook until golden brown , and place on paper towel to drain. Continue process till all eggplants are cooked.
