Liquid oil or olive oil 1 to 2 tablespoons

Salt and black pepper as needed

Chopped fresh basil and Parmesan cheese (optional) as needed for decoration

Second step: grill eggplant and onion

Put the tray in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the eggplants are soft and completely roasted. In the middle of the cooking time, stir or turn the eggplant and onion pieces so that all sides are evenly grilled.

In a large pot, pour water and add some salt to boil. Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package. Note that the texture of the pasta should not be too soft and soft and feel a little under the teeth. Then drain the pasta.

Step 4: Combine the sauce and eggplant

Pour the marinara sauce into a small pan or pot and put it on low heat until it heats up and boils. After removing the grilled eggplant and onion from the oven, toss them into the heated tomato sauce and stir gently to combine the flavors.

Step 5: Serve the pasta

Pour the drained pasta into a serving dish, add the tomato sauce along with the grilled eggplants and garnish with fresh chopped basil and some grated parmesan cheese if desired.

Grilled eggplant pasta is ready and you can eat it for lunch or dinner. drink
