  1. Cut

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Cut the egg-plants into thin roundels;
  2. season and dredge them, and fry them in smoking oil.
  3. Dish them on a napkin, and serve immediately, that they may be eaten crisp.
  4. If they wait at all, they soften, and thereby lose quality.
