Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup olive oil (doesn't have to be extra virgin)
1 pound plum tomatoes (chopped about 4 or 5)
2 - 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
1 eggplant about 1 - 1 1/2 pounds (unpeeled, cut into 1-inch chunks)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
A few fresh basil leaves
Kosher salt (to taste)
Pepper ( to taste)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, over medium high heat, heat the olive oil and add the eggplant. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Sauté until the eggplant gets a little color and softens just a bit. This should take at least 5 minutes. Stir them here and there so it fries up, then cover them for about 5 or so minutes and let them stew.
  • Uncover and stir. You'll notice the eggplant released some of the oil it had absorbed. Add the garlic and oregano and stir until fragrant. Then add the tomatoes, oregano, and some salt and pepper to your taste. Stir and let cook for about 5 minutes or so to allow the tomatoes to break down a bit. The tomatoes should have "melted" and created a sauce. Tear or slice the basil and stir it in. Remove from heat.
  • You can top with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese but this is delicious as is.
  • Can be served as a side, a light meal, as a topping for bread, or mixed with some pasta.

EGGPLANT WITH TOMATO SAUCE

My grandmother brought this recipe from Italy about 125 years ago. It's been passed through the generations and is now being made by my own great-granddaughters! It's a delightful side dish that we serve with a variety of main courses such as pasta with meatballs or baked chicken. I make it every week!

  • Preheat oven to 400f and set rack to the middle level. Spread eggplant onto 2 baking sheets (don't overcrowd eggplant) and brush on a bit of olive oil on each side. Sprinkle the eggplant evenly with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and a 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  • Roast the eggplant, flipping the pieces at halfway point, for 25-30 minutes or until soft and cooked through.
  • While eggplant is roasting prepare the sauce. In a large saucepan over medium-low heat saute the sliced garlic in a 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil until golden (about 2-3 minutes). Once the garlic turns golden add in the red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds more.
  • Next, add in the plum tomatoes and bring sauce to a low simmer, stirring occasionally. Add in the dried oregano and stir together. Taste test the sauce and if required add in a 1/2 teaspoon or so of kosher salt. Once satisfied with the taste of the sauce, remove from the heat and set aside.
