Ingredients for Fody’s Air Fryer Eggplant Fries with Italian Herb Ketchup
- 1 medium eggplant
- ½ cup gluten-free unseasoned breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 2 tsp salt, divided
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp Fody’s garlic infused olive oil
- ¼ cup gluten free 1:1 flour
For the Italian Herb Ketchup
- ¼ cup Fody’s Unsweetened Ketchup
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
Directions for Fody’s Air Fryer Eggplant Fries with Italian Herb Ketchup
- Slice the eggplant into rounds about ½” thick, then slice each round into matchsticks. Add matchsticks to a large mixing bowl and season with salt, tossing to coat. Lay the matchsticks on a baking sheet lined with a paper towel, allowing the eggplant to “sweat” for about 5 minutes before patting dry.
- Combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, dried oregano, dried basil, salt and black pepper in a small bowl. Pour flour into a second small bowl. Beat eggs and Fody’s Garlic Infused Olive Oil together in another small bowl.
- Dredge the eggplant first into the flour, then the egg & olive oil mixture and finally into the seasoned breadcrumb mixture. Repeat the process until all matchsticks are coated.
- Preheat the airfryer to 370F if your airfryer requires pre-heating. Then spray the basket with cooking spray and arrange matchsticks in the basket so they are not touching. You will likely need to cook the eggplant fries in batches.
- Cook the eggplants for 8 minutes. After about 8 minutes, shake the basket and cook again for another 5 minutes if needed or until desired crispness is reached.
- While the eggplant fries are cooking, mix together Fody’s Ketchup and herbs in a small bowl. Set aside for dipping.
