Aubergine, fried in corn oil

Aubergine is a vegetable; the figures here describe sliced aubergine shallow fried in corn oil. In this form, it mainly provides fat and energy, with smaller amounts of carbohydrate and protein. Per 100g, it contains 1246 kJ of energy, 32g of fat, including 4.1g of saturated fat, and 5.5mg of vitamin E.

Frying adds oil to the aubergine, increasing its fat and energy content compared with cooking without added fat. This is relevant for people monitoring their energy or saturated fat intake. Vitamin E helps protect cells from oxidative damage. The amount of oil absorbed during cooking can affect the final nutrient content. Full nutritional figures are given in the tables below.
