Fresh and easy pasta with eggplant, tomato, roasted garlic and basil for an amazing weeknight dinner or a lazy Sunday afternoon.
I don’t remember when I started making this pasta, because I have been making this recipe for ever! I love eggplant and honestly we don’t use it enough. The key is to sear the eggplant so it is a little crispy on the outside, but soft and creamy on the inside. Then, cook the tomatoes just enough so they are soft, but don’t fall apart. Then add lots of fresh beautiful basil.
There are really only 5 ingredients to this sauce. So each ingredient needs to be at the peak of flavor. Someone once said “The devil is in the details.” I interpret this as meaning you want to be picky about how fresh and beautiful each individual ingredient is. So when they all come together, it will be glorious. Let the flavors speak for themselves! And I truly try to cook with this belief in mind.
Store in an airtight container for 2-3 days in the refrigerator.
