Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    First, boil the water to prepare the pasta of your choice as recommended in the package. Meanwhile let's make the sauce. In a pan, at medium to low heat, simer the onions and garlic til soften. Add chopped tomatoes and mix well. Let it sweat a bit before adding the aubergine.

  2. 2

    With the aubergine in, mix well and put the lid on. Let it cook for one to two minutes. Add the salt and black pepper. Put the red or yellow pepper in and tomato paste too.

  3. 3

    Powder the flour on top. Mix well to cook the flour and make sure there are no lumps. Add the water and mix. The sauce will thicken and incorporate all the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add bay leaf and then basil, stir well and cook for about 1 minute with lid on on low temperature. Once the pasta is ready, drain the water and immediately pour it into the sauce. Mix well and serve with some parmesan cheese on top. Enjoy!

Hi fellow cooks! I am a "sauce" (read South 😂)American girl(older girl 😁) living in Bristol since 2007.I was born in Chile but grew up in Brazil, between two cultures, two languages, two food planets.Everything happened in the kitchen - the laughs, the dances, the pasta fights, the dog's invasion after each meal, and so on.Everyone in my family cooks.Since a young age, I saw my grandparents, my parents, my sister, my brothers, aunties & uncles and everyone else around me trying to feed me, all the time! It doesn't happen anymore, I have to do it now, for myself and for my family. I feed everyone!Here you will find some of those old recipes and some new ones.Also, you will see that my cooking skills come with nice food photos too.See you in the kitchen!
