This pasta dish is great with porcini mushrooms but they might be a little bit pricey so just regular crimini or portobello mushrooms will do fine. Also romano or parmesan cheese is an awesome addition for the dish.

Ingredients

    Chop the eggplant and mushrooms into cubes.

    In a skillet melt the oil with 1 Tbsp butter. Add onion and saute until soft. Add garlic, rosemary, eggplant and mushrooms and leave simmering for 5 minutes stirring from time to time.

  5. 5

    Pour wine and wait until absorbed. Pour stock and leave simmering for roughly 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Meanwhile cook the pasta according to a package instructions.

  7. 7

    Add some hot water from the pasta to a cream and mix until combined. Pour over the sauce, stir and simmer few more minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve with some parmesan or romano cheese sprinkled on a top.
