Breaded Eggplant w/ Lamb Gravy
-Family Recipe, not written down, dictated to me.

After roasting a leg of lamb, take the drippings and combine with water and flour roux and create some lamb gravy. Pour into small pot & set aside

Peel a large eggplant
Cut into slices 1/2 inch thick
Spinkle with salt
Cover the slices with a wet paper towel
(this removes the bitterness of the eggplant)

Prepare a bowl of flower and small bowl of whipped eggs
and a plate of bread crumbs

Let the eggplant stand for an hour
Take a frying pan, pour a 1/2 inch of olive oil and bring to high heat
(sizzling)

Now take the eggplant slices
Dip in flour, then egg, then bread crumbs
Then fry on both sides
Fry untill golden brown

Create several and serve with lamb gravy

Enjoy
