My husband, who does not like eggplant, told me to be sure I wrote a review to say how good this was! I fried it like potato pancakes. One comment: try to get as much water out of the eggplant as possible.

These burgers are awesome. The taste is great and what I liked was that you can make them ahead and freeze them. Then you can take them out put them in the microwave and serve with a salad. The only thing I found was they were a little sticky so I added some oatmeal then they were fine. Sorry I should have added that I fried them in a non stick pan with a little oil not actually dumping them into oil.

I'm cooking like crazy this week, trying to prepare ahead of time for our daughter's birthday party this weekend. I love eggplant, so I thought I'd make these as an appetizer. I HAD to sneak one for lunch! I put a little tomato sauce and ricotta on top and it was great. Thanks Kelli!

Mmmmm - this recipe was excellent. I added a dollop on ricotta cheese and some tomato sauce on each croquette after frying. Delicious!!

My family couldn't get enough of these! Even my son, who says he "hates" eggplant devoured them! I am always looking for new vegetarian recipes, thank goodness I found this one.

These were delicious and not at all bitter as eggplant can sometimes be. I thought we would need a sauce but honestly these stand on their own quite well.

This is a very good recipe and easy to make. I never thought eggplant could taste so good. They are also good as a sandwich with a slice of tomato and lettuce--kind of like a veggie burger. Next time I am going to try to bake them instead of frying--for a healthier recipe.

These we absolutely delicious! My mother made them and loved them too. We steamed eggplant instead of microwaving. Only needed one egg. It is a very wet, sticky batter. Suggest you scoop out with spatula, form patties on cookie sheet and refrigerate before frying. They were worth the effort.

I thought this recipe was disgusting and I usually love eggplant, there was way to much breadcrumbs and the eggplant did not mash well i was left with eggplant pieces that just resembled sauteed onions. I suggest never using this recipe, next time I'll try making salmon croquettes.

They were ok. I'm sure they would have been outstanding if you deep fried them, but they were pretty limp and took on the taste of the bread crumbs.

These were delicious and I don't even like eggplant! I reduced the fat by just spraying a griddle with pam and grilling them that way and I had no problem with them falling apart.

This was a wonderful recipe. I have a vegetarian friend and she loved it but what surprised me was the kids ate and loved it. This could become a regular on our table thank you.

This was the first time my husband & I had tried eggplant & we loved it! I cooked it on the grill in a wok, and eventhough the croquettes didn't stay together, the taste was wonderful. My husband is already asking when I'll make them again!

These were delicious! My 13 year old hates eggplant and she liked them too (didn't tell her what was in them!). I added a little hot sauce to the mixture and it was nice that way. The leftovers were stuffed in to pitas the next day with sprouts and salsa, and some with lettuce and mayo...yum!

This was a really simple and tasty dish to make. I used a food processor to "mash' the cooked eggplant as it was tough to mash by hand. They also are great the next day, unheated!

I have made this recipe several times and i love it-- the only thing i don't like is the frying part-- not the healthiest way to cook-- i tried adding some more filler-- ie chopped up spinach, carrots, and bread crumbs then grilled them-- they kind of make a homemade veggie burger-- yes they are messy but use less egg and more ingredients-- i

Ugh. I don’t know what went wrong. Too much eggplant, even though the recipe was scaled down AND I only used half the recommended. The patties didn’t stick together until you fried the death out of them, at which point they tasted fine but made the whole house smell of hot oil for a week. I wasn’t happy with this recipe at all.
