Yeo Kyung-ok's Snowflake Ice Flower Eggplant

Cooking tips 💡

• Microwaving the eggplant before cooking helps shrink its sponge-like internal air pockets, preventing excessive oil absorption during pan-cooking.
• The crisp crust should easily release from the pan, so always use a well-seasoned pan and ensure sufficient oil is used to avoid failure.
• For faster crispiness, use water at about 5 times the flour amount; for a larger, more elaborate snowflake lattice and thorough internal doneness, use up to 10 times the flour amount.
