Steps

1 Done	Wash the eggplant and remove the stalks and ends. Cut the eggplant in slices.
2 Done	Sprinkle the sliced eggplants with salt evenly. Transfer them to a colander over a plate and set aside for about 30 minutes to drain. This step will draw out the bitter juices.
3 Done	Carefully rinse each piece of the eggplant under cold water, and make sure to remove all the salt. Drain and pat them dry with paper towels. Leave aside.
4 Done	In a mixing bowl, pour in the soda water, all purpose flour and salt. Slowly stir until mix well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and store in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.
5 Done	Heat the vegetable oil in large skillet or frying pan over high heat. While heating, dip the eggplant in a batter and coat them evenly. Place them in hot oil and fry for 5 minutes or until golden on both sides.
6 Done	Remove from the heat and transfer them in paper towels-lined plate to absorb the excess oil. Serve.
