Fried Eggplants

I love eggplants. Eggplants are one of those plants that goes well with any dish. You can cook it in so many ways. There's soup, stir fry, deep fry, pan fry, and grilling. My favorite way to eat it is Italian style with a nice plate of spaghetti. My husband likes to snack on this dish too...it's the only time he'll eat more vegetables than meat. This is a very simple recipe...easy to follow and easy to make.

1 cup flour
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
½ cup plain bread crumbs
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
Oil
1 eggplant
Milk

Cut up eggplant into ½ inch rounds and let soak in milk for about 1 minute. Combine flour, cheese, bread crumbs, black pepper, and salt in a bowl. Coat eggplant slices into the flour mixture. Preheat a pan with a thin layer of oil and pan fry each side for about 3 minutes until sides are crispy, golden brown.
