Heat oil in large pot or fryer to 350F . Dip each eggplant slice into batter to evenly coat, shake off excess, and drop into hot oil, being careful not to crowd the pan. Fry until golden brown all over, 3 to 5 minutes. Use slotted spoon to turn, and transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve hot, sprinkled with salt, and with yogurt for dipping. Also just sprinkled with parmesan cheese.
