Spaghetti Alla Norma

Place oil and garlic in a large skillet; cook over medium-high heat 30 seconds or until garlic begins to sizzle. Add tomato and salt; cook 15 minutes or until liquid has evaporated. Add the eggplant; cover, reduce heat, and cook 15 minutes or until eggplant is tender. Stir in basil; set aside.

Cook pasta in boiling water 9 minutes; drain. Toss with sauce and cheese. Serve immediately.

Wine Note: A classic Sicilian dish calls for a classic Sicilian wine, but these can be hard to find. So opt for something with the same warm Mediterranean flavors: Librandi's red wine known as Ciro ($12). From the southern province of Calabria, it's spicy, juicy, and perfect for the bold, savory flavors of basil, garlic, eggplant, and mozzarella.
