How to make Sweet and Sour Crispy Eggplant
Prepare all ingredients.
For the sauce, combine apple cider vinegar, sugar, water, soy sauce, ketchup, and starch. Put on low heat and cook until thickened, stirring constantly.
Pour into a jar and let cool. When the sauce has cooled, it will thicken even more.
Peel the eggplants. Cut into cubes. Season with salt, garlic powder and let sit for 15 minutes.
Then roll the starch into the sticks on all sides.
Fry the eggplants until crisp. To prevent them from sticking together, fry them a short distance from each other.
Pour the prepared eggplants with sweet and sour sauce. Enjoy your meal!
