Miss Annie inspired me to make this. This is similar to her, Okra Patties , except that I'm using eggplant and an ingredient or two more. Very tasty and a different way to prepare eggplant than the usual cassarole or breaded and fried eggplant. Hope you enjoy it. Ingredients:
1 lb eggplant, peeled and finely chopped |
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped |
1 -2 jalapeno, finely chopped and seeded |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper (may substitute chili powder for an extra flare) |
1/2 cup water |
1 egg |
1/2 cup flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 cup cornmeal |
1/2 cup oil (for frying) |
Directions:
1. Combine eggplant, onion, salt, pepper, water, egg and jalepeno. Mix well. 2. Mix flour, baking powder, cornmeal and add to eggplant mixture, mixing well. 3. Heat oil to medium-high. Drop heaping spoonfulls of eggplant mixture into hot oil. Spread out like a pancake and cook until golden brown. |
