    Utensils Used
    | 1. For Fritter Batter: Sift 1 cup plain flour and a pinch of salt into a bowl. | 2. Add 1 egg yolk, 1 tablespoon oil and 3/4 cup lukewarm water. | 3. Beat until smooth. | 4. Let stand for 10 minutes then fold in stiffly beaten egg white. Use immediately. | 5. Wash and dry eggplant. I place paper towels over and under the eggplant to soak up all the liquid. Just keep changing them for a while until they quit getting really wet. | 6. Cut into 1/4 inch slices and spread out on trays. | 7. Sprinkle with salt and leave for 1 hour. | 8. Pat dry with paper towels and coat with flour or fritter batter. I like the fritter batter. | 9. Shallow fry in hot oil until golden brown and crisp on each side - 10 minutes in all. | 10. Drain on paper towel and serve hot with Garlic Sauce (optional). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
