Mediterranean Pasta Salad

Delicious Hot or Cold.......

Serves 2 people

Ingredients

1 medium Aubergine thinly sliced

1 medium onion thinly sliced

2 garlic cloves thinly sliced

4 tomatoes sliced into wedges

A mixture of your favorite olives (I used black and green) 6 of each - halved

200g of dried pasta (your preferred shape) - I used spirals

50g parmesan - Freshly grated

4 Tbs olive oil

4 Tbs pine nuts

Salt and pepper


Method

  1. First boil a kettle full of water, this cuts down on the cooking time.

  2. Heat 2 TBS of olive oil in a frying pan.

  3. Saute the onion over a medium heat, then add the garlic and aubergine, allow to cook and soften for 10 minutes.

  4. Add the tomatoes and turn the heat down to low.

  5. When boiled pour it into a large saucepan.

  6. Salt the water.

  7. Lower the pasta in and cook for the instructed length of time.

  8. Add the olives to the vegetable mixture.

  9. When the pasta is cooked, drain and rinse under cold water to halt the cooking process.

  10. Add the pasta to the vegetable mix in the frying pan and toss lightly.

  11. Mix in the pine nuts.

  12. Season with salt and pepper.

  13. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil.

  14. Serve on your favorite plate and top with the parmesan cheese.

Enjoy. xx
