Ingredients
  

  • 1 large eggplant
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup panko
  • 1 cup finely grated parmesan
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt for salting the eggplant

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450°. Wash the eggplant and slice into equal sized fries. Spreas the eggplant out on a plate and sprinkle with salt. Wait 10 minutes, and then wipe dry with paper towel or a clean kitchen towel.
  • In a wide bowl, mix the panko, parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and oregano together. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg. Drizzle your baking sheet with the oil.
  • Dip the eggplant fries in the egg, and coat all sides. Immediately coat with the panko mixture and put on baking sheet. Continue these steps until all the eggplant is used. Don't crowd your fries, use two pans if needed.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, flip the fries over and bake for another 10 minutes. Serve right out of the oven!
