I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sandwiches didn't turn out very well. The breading was too thick and the eggplant was mushy.

The sandwiches were a bit too greasy for my liking. I think I would have preferred to bake them instead of frying them.

These sandwiches were a little bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more spices to the breading. The eggplant was also a little dry.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sandwiches were perfect! The eggplant was cooked through but still had a little bit of a bite to it. The breading was crispy and the sauce was flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

These sandwiches were easy to make and turned out great! I used panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs, and they added a nice crunch. I also added a slice of provolone cheese to each sandwich, which melted perfectly.

I'm not usually a fan of eggplant, but these sandwiches were delicious! The breading was light and airy, and the eggplant was soft and tender. I would definitely recommend this recipe.
