Categories     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 eggplants ((about 2 pounds in total))
Kosher salt
Extra virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, (minced)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 14.5- ounce cans diced tomatoes with their juices
1 ½ teaspoon dry oregano
¾ pound Rigatoni pasta
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ cup grated Ricotta salata

Steps:

  • Slice and Salt the Eggplant. Trim the eggplant and partially peel them in a striped pattern (zebra pattern). Slice them into ½ inch thick rounds. Season the eggplant slices with kosher salt on both sides and lay them flat for a few minutes (up to 30 minutes if you have the time). Wipe the eggplant dry and remove excess salt using a paper towel.
  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Roast the eggplant. Brush the bottom of a large sheet pan (or two) with extra virgin olive oil. Arrange the eggplant slices in the pans in one single layer (eggplant slices should not overlap, each should be comfortably touching the bottom of the sheet pan). Roast in the heated oven until deeply golden brown, anywhere from 35 to 40 minutes, turning over mid-way through.
  • Make the Sauce. Meanwhile, get going on the sauce. In a large deep pan, heat 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, lower the heat and cook, tossing regularly, until the garlic gains a little bit of color. Add the tomatoes (with their juices), oregano and a good pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a quick boil, then lower the heat and let simmer briefly.
  • When ready, add the roasted eggplant to sauce. Let simmer while you cook the pasta.
  • Cook the pasta in boiling salted water according to package instructions (mine took about 11 minutes). Drain and combine the pasta with the eggplant and sauce (if needed, add a little bit of the pasta water and toss until the pasta is well-coated). Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Add chopped parsley and grated ricotta salata cheese to finish.

PASTA ALLA NORMA



Pasta alla Norma image

This traditional Sicilian pasta dish of sautéed eggplant tossed with tomato sauce and topped with ricotta salata makes for a satisfying vegetarian dinner, and it can be thrown together in under an hour.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds eggplant
Olive oil as needed (at least 1/2 cup)
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
3 or 4 dried chiles
1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, chopped (canned are fine; about 1 can)
1 teaspoon good dried oregano, or 1 tablespoon fresh
1 pound long pasta
1/2 cup chopped parsley or basil
1/2 cup grated ricotta salata (or in a pinch, pecorino Romano)

Steps:

  • Slice the eggplant about 1/2 inch thick. Cook in abundant olive oil, without crowding, sprinkling with salt and adding more oil as needed. You will undoubtedly have to cook in batches; take your time and cook until the eggplant is nicely browned and soft. Remove to a plate; do not drain on paper towels. Meanwhile, put a large pot of water to boil and salt it.
  • At the end of the cooking the eggplant, the pan will ideally have a couple of tablespoons of oil left. If there's more or less, drain some off or add a bit. Turn the heat to medium, add the garlic and chiles, and cook until the garlic colors a little bit. Add the tomatoes and oregano, along with some salt and pepper; cook until saucy but not too dry, stirring occasionally.
  • Cook the pasta until tender but not mushy. While it's cooking, cut the eggplant into strips and reheat for a minute in the tomato sauce. Drain the pasta and toss it with the tomato sauce and the eggplant. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then top with the parsley or basil and grated cheese and serve.

CLASSIC PASTA ALLA NORMA



Classic Pasta alla Norma image

This is down-home, primal Sicilian cooking, using inexpensive and commonly available ingredients: olive oil, eggplant, tomato and pasta. A showering of grated ricotta salata and toasted bread crumbs adorns this humble yet justly famous dish. The Sicilian composer Vincenzo Bellini adored it with such a passion that it was eventually named after his 19th-century opera "Norma" - or so goes the story.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, lunch, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, diced
Salt and pepper
2 garlic cloves, peeled
Pinch of crushed red pepper
12 basil leaves, plus a few basil sprigs for garnish
4 cups peeled, chopped tomatoes with juice, fresh or canned
3 or 4 small eggplants (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 pound pasta, such as penne, rigatoncini or spaghetti
1 cup coarsely grated ricotta salata
1/4 cup toasted bread crumbs, preferably homemade

Steps:

  • Make a quick tomato sauce: Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir in garlic, red pepper and basil leaves and cook for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, stir and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and let sauce simmer gently for 20 minutes, until slightly thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning. Set aside. (Sauce may be prepared up to 2 days in advance.)
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Turn heat to low and cover pot until it's time to cook the pasta.
  • Put a wide cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons olive oil to coat surface of pan. When oil is wavy, test by adding a cube of eggplant. It should begin to sizzle and brown immediately. Fill the pan with a single layer of eggplant cubes. Turn eggplant with a spatula or tongs and brown nicely on all sides. Lower heat as necessary to maintain an even temperature; if the pan is too hot, the eggplant will burn.
  • Remove cooked eggplant to a plate and continue to fry remaining eggplant in batches, adding more oil as necessary. Season finished eggplant with salt and pepper. (Alternatively, roast the eggplant on a baking sheet at 400 degrees, lightly drizzled with oil, until cooked and nicely browned, about 20 minutes.)
  • To assemble and serve, boil pasta until al dente, leaving it a little firmer than normal. Bring the tomato sauce to a simmer. Add eggplant to sauce and gently stir to combine. Reserve a cup of pasta cooking water, then drain pasta and add to sauce. Using 2 wooden spoons or tongs, toss pasta and sauce, and let cook 1 minute more. Thin sauce if necessary with a little pasta cooking water.
  • Transfer to a warmed wide pasta bowl. Sprinkle with grated ricotta salata and bread crumbs. Garnish with torn or whole basil leaves and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

BAKED PASTA ALLA NORMA



Baked Pasta alla Norma image

Cheesy, saucy baked pasta is even more fun when you can slice it into wedges.

Provided by Claire Saffitz

Categories     Bon Appétit     Dinner     Pasta     Bake     Tomato     Eggplant     Garlic     Parmesan     Basil     Egg

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium globe eggplant, peeled, cut into 1/2" pieces
2 pints cherry tomatoes
8 garlic cloves, smashed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for skillet
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes, plus more for sprinkling
Kosher salt
2 large eggs
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
4 oz. finely grated Parmesan, divided
1 lb. spaghetti
2 Tbsp. drained capers
1/2 cup torn basil, plus a few whole leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine eggplant, tomatoes, garlic, 1/4 cup oil, and 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes in a large ovenproof skillet, preferably cast iron. Season generously with salt and toss to combine. Roast, shaking skillet once or twice, until eggplant is tender and tomatoes burst, 25-35 minutes. Let vegetables cool while you prepare the pasta (watch out for the hot handle when you take the skillet out of the oven). Reduce oven temperature to 400°F.
  • Whisk eggs and tomato paste in a medium bowl until smooth, then whisk in about three-quarters of Parmesan.
  • Cook spaghetti in a pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Immediately drain pasta in a colander and shake to remove excess water; transfer pasta back to pot.
  • Add cooled vegetable mixture to pot with pasta. Wipe out skillet and drizzle in a little oil; roll around in skillet to coat. Add egg mixture to pasta and toss vigorously with tongs until pasta is evenly coated. Add capers and 1/2 cup basil and toss again to combine.
  • Transfer pasta mixture to skillet and press gently into an even layer. Top with remaining Parmesan, a few whole basil leaves, and an extra sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
  • Bake pasta until surface is nicely browned, 30-35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before cutting into wedges for serving.

PASTA ALLA NORMA



Pasta alla Norma image

This is an original recipe given to me from Sicilian relatives. Pasta is tossed with a simple tomato sauce, then topped with fried eggplant, ricotta salata, and hot peppers. The cut of pasta is not too important, it is good even with spaghetti.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta

Time 1h7m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 eggplant, sliced into 1-inch rounds

Pasta Alla Norma: Norma's Pasta image

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound/450 g penne rigate pasta
4 tablespoons/5 ml, extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for deep-frying eggplant
1/2 white onion, chopped
1 (14-ounce/400 g) can peeled plum tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium-size eggplant, cubed
Fresh basil leaves, torn
Ricotta salata cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Cook the penne in a pot of boiling salted water. Stir to prevent the pasta from sticking together. While the pasta is cooking, make the sauce.
  • To make the sauce: In a saucepan, heat up 4 tablespoons of olive oil. Gently saute the chopped onions until tender, then add the plum tomatoes and liquid from the can. With the back of a wooden spoon, break up the tomatoes into little chunks. Season the sauce with salt, and pepper, to taste. Cook the tomato sauce for a few minutes, until the sauce has thickened.
  • In another pan, heat olive oil and fry the eggplant cubes until golden.
  • Drain the eggplant cubes on a paper towel to remove the excess oil. Drain the pasta approximately 2 minutes before the 'al dente' stage and add the pasta to the saucepan. Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce. Add the fried eggplant, basil leaves and sprinkle with ricotta salata. Mix the ingredients together well in the saucepan so that the pasta and the sauce are well amalgamated or combined. Be careful not to overcook the pasta. Transfer the pasta to a warm serving bowl or divide the pasta among warm plates and sprinkle extra ricotta salata on top and serve immediately.

PASTA ALLA NORMA



Pasta alla norma image

Try this easy version of an alla norma, which uses roast aubergine instead of fried. It's then tossed with spaghetti and a rich tomato and basil sauce

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 aubergines, cut into 3cm chunks
1 heaped tsp salt
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
pinch chilli flakes

1 tsp sugar
350g spaghetti (egg-free, if needed)
small bunch basil, shredded, plus a few leaves to serve
1 heaped tbsp capers
ricotta salata or parmesan, finely grated, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Toss the aubergines with the salt, then tip into a colander set over a bowl for 30 mins, to extract any moisture.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a casserole dish or saucepan. Tip in the onion and a pinch of salt, and cook over a low heat for 10 mins. Add the garlic and chilli, and cook for 1 min. Tip in the tomatoes and sugar, and bring to the simmer. Cook, uncovered, for 20 mins, stirring occasionally. Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7.

PASTA ALLA NORMA RECIPE BY TASTY



Pasta Alla Norma Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: medium eggplant, kosher salt, olive oil, garlic, whole peeled tomato, red pepper flakes, whole wheat spaghetti, ricotta salata, fresh basil

Provided by Crystal Hatch

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium eggplant
½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
¼ cup olive oil, divided
3 cloves garlic, smashed
56 oz whole peeled tomato, drained and roughly chopped, juices reserved
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 lb whole wheat spaghetti
½ cup ricotta salata, crumbled
1 bunch fresh basil, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Trim the ends of the eggplant, then slice into ½-inch (1 ¼ cm) thick rounds. Lay the eggplant rounds on a paper towel and season generously on both sides with salt. Let rest for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. After 10 minutes, pat the eggplant rounds with a paper towel to remove the moisture.
  • Heat a griddle pan over medium-high heat and grease with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, or your oil of choice. Grill the eggplant for about 2 minutes on each side, or until grill marks are formed. Set aside to cool, then cut into bite-size pieces.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the smashed garlic and cook until fragrant and lightly browned but not burnt, flipping as needed. Remove the garlic from the oil and set aside to cool, then mince.
  • To the garlic oil, add the chopped tomatoes. Cook for 5-10 minutes, or until caramelized. Add the reserved tomato juice and simmer until reduced to a sauce-like consistency, 5-8 minutes.
  • Add ½ teaspoon salt, the red pepper flakes, and the minced fried garlic. Stir well, reduce the heat to low, and simmer while you make the pasta.
  • In a large pot of boiling water, cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and return to the pot.
  • Pour the tomato sauce over the hot pasta. Add the eggplant, ricotta salata, and fresh basil. Toss until well combined.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!
