Eggplant croquettes are a savory dish often associated with Mediterranean cuisine. These bite-sized treats are crafted from tender eggplant, breadcrumbs, cheese, herbs, and spices, resulting in a flavorful and crispy texture when fried or baked. Eggplants serve as the star ingredient, rich in antioxidants like nasunin and chlorogenic acid, which support cellular health and combat oxidative stress. They are also a good source of fiber, promoting digestive health and aiding in satiety. However, depending on preparation, croquettes can be high in calories and fats, especially when deep-fried. Baking offers a healthier alternative with less oil without compromising taste. Often paired with a zesty yogurt dip or marinara sauce, eggplant croquettes are a delicious way to enjoy nutrient-rich eggplant while indulging in comfort food.
