Penne alla Siciliana step by step
- Prepare the pasta according to the instructions on the package. When done, set to the side..
- In a medium to large pot, put Olive Oil into it over a medium/medium high flame. Add the diced onion and garlic into the pot, along with the pepper, oregano, and basil. Cook the onion and garlic until the onion is translucent and the garlic is browned. For my preference, I remove the garlic here, but you can keep it in there..
- Add the eggplant to the pot and cook for 20-25 minutes. Stir the eggplant occasionally..
- Add the grape tomatoes to the pot next. Cook for another 15-20 minutes, until they start to become saucy..
- When the tomatoes start to get saucy, add the pasta into the pot. Stir until everything is distributed fairly evenly. Cook for another 5 minutes..
- Remove from the pot and place into a pasta bowl. Place the fresh mozzarella on top of the pasta and toss together..
- Serve and Enjoy!.
