PASTA WITH EGGPLANT AND ZUCCHINI



Pasta With Eggplant and Zucchini image

This timeless summer pasta dish was brought to The Times in 1991 by Pierre Franey in one of his 60-Minute Gourmet columns. Like so many of his dishes, it is at once elegant and easy, and no trouble to put together on a weeknight. Sauté the sliced eggplant and zucchini until golden while you make a quick sauce of canned crushed tomatoes, olive oil, garlic and herbs in another pot. Throw everything together, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Toss with cooked pasta and a shower of Parmesan. Dig in.

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
4 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pound eggplant
1/2 pound zucchini
3/4 pound dry pasta, like ziti, fusilli, shells or rigatoni
4 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh basil
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a saucepan and add the garlic. Cook and stir without browning. Add the tomatoes, parsley, oregano, pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Stir to blend, bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes.

  • Return the pasta to the pot, add the reserved cooking liquid, the vegetable and sauce mixture, basil and Parmesan cheese. Toss and serve hot.
