Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make pasta with eggplant in Italian? Prepare your ingredients. Wash the vegetables and basil and dry with paper towels. You can use fresh tomatoes, after removing the skin from them, as well as canned ones — in their own juice, or tomato juice or paste. The dosage will need to be adjusted to your own taste, depending on the concentration of the tomato. I had tomatoes in their own juice, which I previously pureed in a blender.
