This recipe was a disaster! The eggplant fries were soggy and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The eggplant fries were good, but I found the sauce to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably try making it with less sugar next time.

The eggplant fries were a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I will try baking them next time instead of frying them.
