  2. Quick Tips:

    Cut eggplant and zucchini into slices right before you are ready to fry as they discolor rapidly.

    Eggplants are like sponges, so to prevent them from absorbing too much oil, you need to pat dry them with a paper towel and sprinkle them with lots of salt. Also, the oil in the pan should be very hot before you start frying.
