Quarter the caps.Heat the cooking oil in a wok or frying pan. When it starts to smoke, add the eggplants and fry for just 30 seconds. They will continue to soften in the residual heat do don’t wait for them to turn soft. When they start to brown, scoop them out (a spider is useful) and drain on a stack of paper towels.
