Steps:
- Slice the eggplant and lay out on a paper towel lined baking sheet.
- Generously salt the eggplant on both sides and leave to sit for 30 minutes to soften and draw out excess moisture.
- Blot off the water and excess salt from the eggplant with additional paper towels.
- In a medium mixing bowl add the basil, ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and one egg (beaten). Mix together.
- Picking two equal sized eggplant slices, sandwich about a tablespoon of the ricotta mixture between the slices and place on a wax paper lined baking tray.
- Freeze for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- In three separate bowls, place the flour, bread crumbs, and the remaining 3 eggs, beaten.
- Remove eggplant from the freezer and coat each first in flour, then egg, then bread crumbs. Coat once more in egg and a final time in the bread crumbs. Place back in the freezer while you prepare to fry.
- In a large saucepan, heat oil to 350˚F (180˚C). Fry eggplant in batches, 3 at a time, until nicely browned on all sides.
- Remove and place on a paper towel lined plate to drain off any excess oil. Sprinkle with salt. Serve with marinara sauce.
- Enjoy!
