Step 2Combine the eggs and cream,mix well. Combine the bread crumbs,grated cheese,mix well. Bread the eggplant slices by dipping them in the egg batter then the bread crumb mixture shaking off any excess bread crumb. Now fry the the eggplant slices and drain on paper towels to absorb any excess fat.
