TAGLIATELLE TOSSED IN SUN-DRIED TOMATO PESTO WITH FRIED BRINJAL JULIENNE
Tagliatelle tossed in sun-dried tomato pesto with fried brinjal julienne, parsley and Parmesan. Perfect meal for a hot and humid night. The pesto was shop bought.
Fry julienne strips of brinjal in olive oil until soft while you cook pasta as per packet instructions. Do not overcook or it will be mushy when you stir the pesto through. Drain the pasta in colander and tip back into the warm pot it was cooked in. Stir about 2 heaped tablespoons of sun-dried tomato pesto through and add a splurge of olive oil too. Serve the pasta with the brinjals heaped on top. Grated generous amount of Parmesan over and sprinkled with chopped fresh parsley.
