Eggplant Alla Norma
Ingredients
1 med Eggplant
4 large garlic cloves
2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
1/4 lb Mushrooms
1 Can of Plain Tomato Sauce
1 Large Onion
1 small can of Anchovies
8oz Capers
1 package of Rigatoni (I used the Vegtable Rigatoni)
8oz of Mozzarella Balls
1/4 Cup of Parsley
1/4 Cup of Parm Cheese
Preparation
1
Peel and cut eggplant into cubes, cut and dice onions, shredded garlic.
2
Add olive oil to skillet to med high heat, add ingredients.
3
Cook for about 15 minutes or until you notice eggplant getting softer.
4
Add Sauce to skillet cook for another 10 minutes.
5
Then take everything from skillet and add to blender with anchovies. Blend until somewhat smooth.
6
Pour back to Skillet and add cooked al dente pasta to sauce, mix in capers.
7
Taste and see if you need salt or pepper, I didnt add anything because anchovies have that salty taste and you can always add red pepper flakes to make things spicy. If you dont like anchovies this is still a great dish without it.
8
After eveything is in the pot add mozzarella balls and parsely.
9
Put on plate and add parm cheese. ENJOY!!
