Method

Peel eggplant and cut in a slice about 3/4 inch, cut slices into a 3/4 inch stick. In a bowl mix bread crumbs, pecorino cheese, salt, and ground fresh pepper, and set aside. Whisk eggs and milk together. Take eggplant sticks and coat them with egg and milk mixture and pat them into bread crumb mix. Repeat this step one more time to fully cover eggplant sticks. Fry eggplant sticks in about 3 cups of hot oil, remove eggplant fries out of oil and let them rest on a paper towel to absorb oil, and serve warm.

 

Notes: These European style French fries will be a hit at any table.
