Como fazer Alton Brown's Eggplant Pasta

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut the eggplant into 1/2-inch thick slices and salt generously. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Pat dry with paper towels.
  3. While the eggplant is salting, prepare the sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and balsamic vinegar.
  4. Roast the eggplant slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and slightly browned.
  5. Add the roasted eggplant to the sauce, gently tossing to coat.
  6. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste.
  7. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil (if using) and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Enjoy with crusty bread for dipping!
