Garlic & Herb Seasoning, Pasta Spice, Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce, Ready to Serve Cheese Sauce
You Will Need:
Method:
Adjust oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 180 °C. Arrange the aubergine slices on baking paper on a baking tray. Season the slices, very lightly, on one side only, with Garlic & Herb Seasoning and then drizzle on the same side generously with olive oil. Bake for 25 minutes until nicely browned (no need to turn). Bring the water to the boil, add pasta and boil fast for 8 - 10 minutes. Drain in a colander. Return the pasta to the pot. Toss with oil and Pasta Spice. Use 1 large ovenproof dish or 2 smaller dishes, if you prefer to serve one and freeze the other. To assemble the dish, spread ⅓ of the Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce over the base of the dish. Spoon over half the pasta, follow with half the Cheese Sauce and half the aubergine slices (keep the best ones for the top layer). Repeat the layers ending with aubergine covered with the last ⅓ of the Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce. Sprinkle lightly with grated cheese. Can be prepared up to this stage and refrigerated or frozen. Bake for 40 - 45 minutes. Garnish with torn basil leaves. Serve with a salad, mushroom or garlic bread.
