Eggplant box is a very popular home-cooked dish in the north. It is made by cutting the eggplant into two thin slices with two consecutive slices, adding meat filling in the middle, then wrapping it in the paste and frying it in a frying pan. The fried eggplant box, with its golden color, delicious meat, crisp and delicious meat, was only eaten during the New Year's Festival and when guests came to the house. Now whenever I think about it, I can't help but salivate.
Although fried eggplant boxes are not expensive dishes, few people usually make themselves at home. Because it is more time-consuming to make, it is also more expensive to oil, and when it is not fried well, the eggplant box is soft and collapsed, so few people fry it at home. In fact, it is very simple to make the fried eggplant box crispy and crispy. My mother is in her 70s, and her old man's fried eggplant box is very delicious, not inferior to the ones made outside restaurants. I also learned the tips of my mother's fried eggplant box. We just need to pay attention to the following two points, you can also fry a delicious eggplant box at home:
1, [batter modulation] The key to the crispness of the eggplant box is the preparation of the batter, which is made of 1/2 of the flour and 1/2 of the starch, made of egg liquid, and the mixed batter also needs to be poured into a little salad oil or sesame oil and stirred evenly. The batter that is brought out in this way has good adhesion and will form a crispy shell outside the eggplant box, which is very delicious.
2, [the heat of the fried eggplant box] The oil temperature of the fried eggplant box should not be too high, when the oil temperature is 3-4 into the heat, you can put the eggplant box into the pot, slow frying on low heat, until it is fried to both sides of the golden brown, you can fish out the oil control and eat. Otherwise, the oil temperature is too high will fry the surface of the eggplant box, but the meat filling inside is not yet mature or cooked thoroughly.
