    Subscribe to Frankie: taste.md/1Svw5wf
    INGREDIENTS
    1 lb. rigatoni
    3 baby eggplant, cut in half
    ¼ cup of olive oil
    2 garlic cloves
    1 pint cherry tomatoes
    1 cup approx pasta water
    freshly shaved ricotta salata
    RECIPE
    Pre-heat your broiler. Place the eggplant halves face down on a baking sheet. And broil for 5-8 minutes until charred.
    When ready, carefully scoop out the fleshy center.
    Bring a large pot of salted water to a roaring boil, and cook the rigatoni until al dente.
    In a large saute pan, add olive oil and garlic, add tomatoes and let sizzle until the tomatoes start bursting.
    Add the eggplant to the tomatoes and mix well to combine.
    Using a strainer or a spider, carefully remove the pasta from the boiling water and place directly into the large saute pan.
    With a ladle or mug, start with one large cup of pasta water and add this to the saute pan as well. Using a wooden spoon, gently mix the pasta with the sauce and mix well to incorporate.

    • @emilyhancock3456
      @emilyhancock3456 Před 8 lety +3

      +Dabney Fountain he's definitely very articulate but I don't think that's what Leroy was referring to, it's more Frankie's tone, his voice always sounds slightly hushed (not a bad thing, just an observation)

    Young man. You bring me back to my roots. I hale from Little Italy in Boston, third generation, but been on Big Island for 33 years. It is a pleasure to watch your wonderful videos (I only just discovered them recently). My grandmother,Angelina, from Tuscany would have appreciated your sense of history and the knowledge you share with your viewers. And my Sicilian grandfather, Florindo, would have loved your passion for food! I was three years old when I made my first "homemades" . I remember hanging the pasta on clothesline to dry.
    Keep it up Frankie! You are an inspiration.
    Aloha
