Make No Mistake Eggplant Milanese

Ingredients

• For the salad:
• 1/2 medium onion
• 1 large tomato (or 2 medium, or approximately 1 1/4 cups cherry tomatoes)
• greens: approximately 1 cup (smushed, not packed) arugula, watercress, spinach, or fresh herbs (I used a mix of cilantro, parsley, and basil for the eggplant milanese)
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 pinch sugar
• For the Eggplant (protein):
• 1 protein, plant-based or otherwise, in a quantity fitting for four people. Use your judgment based on what you choose to bread and fry up. I used two healthy eggplants for four people in this case.
• 1.5 cups seasoned breadcrumbs (store-bought or homemade)
• 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated parmesan or locatelli cheese (reserve 2 tablespoons for sprinkling on just-fried protein)
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• neutral oil, for frying
