fry each piece of eggplant, turning when browned until soft
place on paper towels as you take them out of fry pan

  3. Perfect timing! I'm drowning in eggplant here at the moment, and the hens are no slouches either, so we're not short on eggs ;) I've been wanting to try an Eggplant Parmigiano, so this weekend will be the perfect time to try it!
