4 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon salt

Peel eggplant and slice in 1/2 inch slices. Let stand in salt water 2 hours. Dry. Mix the salt with the cracker crumbs. Beat eggs. Dip eggplant in egg, then in cracker crumbs. When fat is hot, fry the eggplant on both sides, until golden brown and until tender. This requires about 12 minutes.
