How to Make Brinjal Chips
- Wash and slice one large brinjal (eggplant) into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
- Sprinkle the brinjal slices generously with 1 teaspoon of salt and let them sit for 10 minutes to release excess moisture. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Heat about 2 cups of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of brinjal sizzles immediately upon contact.
- Carefully add the brinjal slices to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- While still warm, sprinkle the chips generously with 1/2 teaspoon of chilli powder (adjust to your spice preference) and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious crispy brinjal chips!
