Method
    1. Prepare the Eggplants:
      • Wash and dry the eggplants, then cut them into thin slices.
    2. Make the Batter:
      • In a bowl, mix besan, milk, egg, and baking powder to form a smooth batter.
      • Finely chop the onion, garlic, and coriander.
      • Add the chopped onion, garlic, ginger, and coriander to the batter. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
    3. Heat Up The Oil:
      • Heat the frying oil in a high pan.
    4. Fry the Eggplants:
      • Dip each eggplant slice into the batter, ensuring it’s well-coated, and then carefully place it in the hot oil.
      • Fry until the beignets are golden brown and crispy.
      • Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
      • Repeat the process with the remaining eggplant slices.
    5. Serve and Enjoy:
      • Serve the beignets d’aubergines hot, and enjoy your delicious dish.
    6. Sauce Recommendation:
      • This little hot sauce goes so well with the Beignets.
    Pro Tips
    • Ensure the eggplant slices are uniformly thin for even frying.
    • Let the batter rest for a few minutes to enhance its consistency.
    • Adjust spice levels to suit your taste preferences.
    • Use a kitchen thermometer to maintain the frying oil temperature for crispiness.
