Lusog Notes
This Cheesy Eggplant Layers recipe contains calcium that not only helps in bone development but also in blood clotting and muscle contraction.Chef's Tip
Eggplants are like sponges and will soak a lot of oil when fried. To avoid soaking a lot of oil, make sure the oil is hot so that the crust forms immediately and browns. Also, make sure to avoid overcrowding the pan which will cool down the oil, causing the eggplant to soak more oil.Featured Products
