BRINJAL / AUBERGINE / EGG PLANT

We have only produced 3 brinjals so far.
I wanted to do something different.
Something that didn't include tomatoes.

Brinjal sliced into rounds. (I usually put them on paper towel and salt one side to remove excess water - pat dry)
150g Flour
Tsp Bicarb
200ml Soda Water
Sunflower Oil for deep frying
Maple Syrup

Whisk together flour, bicarb and soda.
Cover and leave for 15 minutes.
Heat the oil till really hot.
Dip the brinjal in the batter and deep fry till golden on one side then turn and fry the other side.
Remove and drain on paper towel.
Drizzle with maple syrup.
Tuck in.
