Eggplant Pasta with Garlic and Rosemary
The sauce in this recipe is robust in flavor and texture, yet so easy to make.
You could substitute the pasta for chicken. Or even add sausages.
It only takes about 10 minutes to prepare and about 25 minutes of total cooking time.
Here are the ingredients needed:
Also, some salt and freshly ground pepper.
I almost forget, Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese.
First, let’s start by cooking the pasta in salted boiling water.
Once it’s al dente, drain it, but wait! Save some of the water used to boil it, we are going to use 1 1/2 cup.
Halve and dice the eggplant. Also, dice the tomatoes.
Remove the leaves from the rosemary stems and finely chop them.
Pause, inhale the aroma, pause, inhale again, continue.
In a large pan, heat the olive oil and add the garlic cloves. Cook over low heat until softened.
Then add the eggplant.
Stir over moderate heat until the eggplant begins to soften and change color.
Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
Add the diced tomatoes.
Then the tomato paste and 1 ½ cup of the water used to boil the pasta.
Stir, then sprinkle the chopped rosemary.
Bring to a simmer and cook for about 8 minutes or until the eggplant is completely soft and the sauce is not runny.
Here is an easy way to find out if it’s done. Run a spoon through it and if your get to see the bottom of the pan, the sauce is done.
Pour the sauce over the pasta and toss to mix.
Serve immediately, with Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese.
Buen Provecho!

Im a die hard fan of anything eggplant!!
So glad to have found your blog. Subscribing to it. Will be here more!
Recipe looks tasty, but, I am not sure of rosemary as the
herb here. I think I will use basil, or oregano. Ricotta Salata
is a perfect cheese for this dish.
I heart eggplant and I want to try this recipe!
