Linguine alla Norma with aubergines, tomatoes, garlic, oregano and pecorino romano cheese

linguine alla norma with aubergines tomatoes garlic oregano and pecorino romano cheese
Linguine alla Norma is a classic Italian pasta dish that originates from Sicily. It typically consists of pasta tossed with sautéed or fried aubergines, tomatoes, garlic, and oregano. The dish is then finished with a generous sprinkling of pecorino romano cheese, adding a salty and savoury umami flavour to the dish. The combination of the tender aubergines, tangy tomatoes, aromatic garlic and earthy oregano creates a harmonious and flavourful pasta dish that is both satisfying and comforting.
