Frequently Asked Questions: crispy fried eggplant with cornstarch recipe
Can it be air-fried?
Sure! Eggplant can be put into an air fryer. It is a great way to prevent the eggplant from absorbing too much oil. Simply brush some oil onto the eggplant instead of pouring the oil into a pan.
What’s the purpose of corn starch?
The corn starch adds extra crispiness to the eggplant as it fries. Cornstarch can be used instead of flour because it is 100% starch, allowing a much crispier texture. Flour is only about 75% starch.

Ingredients
Ingredient of Crispy Fried Eggplant with cornstarch recipe
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 1 small / medium eggplant (about 250 grams )
- 1 tsp salt
- pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Cut each eggplant into rings. The rings should be about 1 cm thick. Then cut each ring in half
- Sprinkle salt on the sliced eggplants for taste. Leave them in a colander, sieve, or another net-shaped flat surface for about an hour or so with a plate underneath. Allow any excess water to drain and pat them with a paper towel. You can let them sit for an hour to dry further and squeeze them with a second paper towel. Finally, transfer the eggplant slices to a dry paper towel
- Pour some cornflour onto a plate. Dip the sliced eggplants in cornflour with salt, then flip them until they are completely coated on both sides
- Put a little oil in a skillet or pan and heat it to medium to high heat

Tips
- You can cut the slices into any shape you like, cubes, slices lengthwise, halves of slices, etc.
- If you choose to refrigerate the cooked eggplant cornstarch, ensure the container is airtight and lined with absorbent paper.
- Note that when eggplants are refrigerated, they lose their crispiness. If you want to restore some of the freshness, you can bake them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper for a few minutes at 180 degrees.
- Eggplants oxidize easily, causing browning. Therefore, it is best to slice them just before starting the cooking process. To prevent premature browning, you may also apply some lemon juice to the sliced eggplant.
- You can place the eggplant cornstarch slices in between bread to make a delicious sandwich, or you can eat the crispy fried eggplant on its own.
