Ingredients
1 1/2 lb eggplant; italian or japanese
2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup summer tomato sauce; see recipe
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoon parsley; minced
1 lb pasta; fusilli (corkscrew)
2/3 cup romano cheese; freshly grated
Cooking Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prick eggplants with a sharp knife in a couple of places, then place on a baking sheet or in a lowsided baking dish. Roast until tender when pierced, 45 to 50 minutes. When cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise, scrape the pulp away from the skin with a spoon and chop pulp until reduced to a near-puree. In a 12-inch skillet, combine chopped eggplant, olive oil, tomato sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Cook over moderately low heat, stirring often, for 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the parsley.
Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until aldente. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Transfer pasta to a large warm bowl. Add sauce and toss to coat. Add all but 1/4 cup cheese and toss again, adding a little of the reserved cooking water if needed to thin the sauceś Serve immediately on warm dishes, topping each portion with some of the remaining cheese and parsley.
