Tips:
1. Cut the eggplant into egg strips. You can cut it into the same length first, then slice it, and finally cut the strips, so the length will be more consistent.
2. Eggplant is a rare purple vegetable. Its skin has high nutritional value, so don't peel it.
3. When adding salt to the eggplant, do not add too much salt, otherwise the eggplant will be salty. Salt can kill the moisture of the eggplant itself, so that the eggplant can absorb less oil during cooking and also make it taste better.
4. Frying eggplant strips is actually oiling eggplant strips, but considering the amount of oil, frying will be healthier.
