While waiting for the eggplant to marinate, prepare a container for mixing the mixture. Then, add all-purpose flour or seasoned flour, chicken stock powder, salt and pepper. So, here's the key to making the dough super crispy, you have to add a little baking soda.

Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed, then divide the mixture into two parts. One of them can be dissolved in water to make a wet mixture. If so, the mixture is ready to be used as an eggplant spread.

Dip the eggplant pieces in the dry flour first, then dip them in the wet eggplant. Finally, put the eggplant back into the dry flour. These three steps for flouring the eggplant will help the texture of the dough become curly.
