I’m not a huge eggplant fan, but I do like it beer battered and fried. My honey introduced me to this treat. He was craving beer battered eggplant, and we couldn’t find it anywhere. I decided to be the Chef of the house that I am, and whip up something for him. I search many recipes online, and I pretty much took the basic ingredients, and made my own recipe for this dish. I keep it really simple, and easy so that I could show all of my I Heart Recipe family one of my new creations. They say that when you cook with alcohol it burns, and you can’t get drunk. Being the mommy that I am, I still don’t serve this to to my son, or any other children. Check out the recipe to the right , and the pictures below.
