My Paccheri alla Norma: A Sicilian-Inspired Delight This is my take on the classic Sicilian Pasta alla Norma, featuring hearty Paccheri pasta tossed with roasted eggplant, sweet cherry tomatoes, and fragrant basil. It’s a vibrant, flavorful dish that’s slightly adapted from the traditional recipe but just as irresistible. Let’s dive in! 1) Roast Eggplant: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Toss eggplant cubes with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet for 15 min (or air fry for 10-12 min). Set aside. 2) Cook Paccheri: Boil Paccheri in salted water until al dente, per package instructions. Drain, reserving ½ cup (120 ml) pasta water 3) Make Sauce: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium. Sauté garlic 1-2 min, add cherry tomatoes, and cook 10 min. Stir in crushed tomatoes, salt, and basil; simmer 5 min. 4) Combine: Add roasted eggplant and Paccheri to the sauce. Toss with a splash of pasta water if needed to coat. 5) Serve: Plate, sprinkle with Parmesan or Pecorino, and garnish with basil. Enjoy the Sicilian vibes! 🔗 A detailed recipe for my profile’s BIO #reelsfood #pasta #pastapasta #recipesharing #pastarecipe #easyrecipesathome #foodbloggersofinstagram

Pasta alla Norma is up there as one of my top 5 pasta dishes, and this recipe is the closest thing I’ve made to the one I had on a trip to Sicily in 2019. 😮💨 Eggplant, passata, and a little chilli. It’s easy enough for a weeknight (though you do need a little patience when it comes to frying the eggplant), but impressive enough to put in front of guests!

Elicoidali n° 49 alla Norma: un classico della cucina siciliana estiva, capace di trasportarci sull’isola in un solo boccone. Ingredienti per 2 persone: 250 g Elicoidali n° 49 Rummo 400 g pomodori pelati 750 g melanzane 2 spicchi d’aglio 5 g zucchero q.b. basilico q.b. ricotta salata Preparazione: 1. Lava le melanzane. Taglia due terzi in pezzi abbastanza grandi e metti da parte. Taglia il resto delle melanzane a fette e metti da parte. 2. In una casseruola, fai dorare l’aglio con una manciata di foglie di basilico nell’olio. Quando l’aglio è dorato, aggiungi i pelati, schiacciandoli per fargli rilasciare l’acqua. Regola di sale e zucchero. 3. In una pentola bassa, riscalda l’olio di semi di girasole quindi versa le melanzane tagliate a tocchi con una schiumarola, alzando la fiamma per 30 secondi. Friggi le melanzane finché non sono ben scure. 4. Una volta pronte le melanzane tagliate a tocchi, tirale fuori con la schiumarola e mettile su una teglia coperta di carta per asciugarle. Friggi le melanzane tagliate a fette seguendo lo stesso procedimento. 5. Rimuovi l’aglio dalla salsa di pomodoro e aggiungi le melanzane. 6. Nel frattempo cuoci gli Elicoidali n° 49 in una pentola con abbondante acqua salata. Un paio di minuti prima del termine della cottura, trasferisci la pasta nella casseruola e termina di cucinarla con le melanzane, aggiungendo all’occorrenza un po’ di acqua di cottura. 7. Completa con abbondante basilico fresco e servi aggiungendo un po’ di ricotta salata grattugiata sul momento. Buon viaggio in Sicilia! #PastaRummo #LentaLavorazione
