How to make eggplant casserole:
Heat the olive oil in a deep skillet. Add onion and bay leaves and saute over medium heat until the onion is soft (5 to 8 minutes). Add eggplant, peppers, mushrooms, salt and basil. Cover and cook until the eggplant is tender (10 to 15 minutes), stirring occasionally. Add wine, tomatoes and black pepper. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes uncovered (the liquid will reduce). Stir in the garlic during the last 5 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the pasta. Drain the pasta; toss with a little additional olive oil and ladle the eggplant on top. Sprinkle with Parmesan and parsley and serve.Recipe categories: Side dish, Vegetables, Casseroles.
