For a tasty and fragrant first course, we suggest this mouth-watering Pasta with Squid and Aubergines. If you wish, you could prepare the recipe without pasta and use the squid and aubergines as a second course, or as a topping for bread croutons or bruschetta.
Needless to say, the dish renders best when prepared using aubergines in season and fresh squid, which you can recognise by their bright, intense-coloured skin and intact, firm tentacles. The flesh should be white and shiny; if the lighter part has a yellowish tinge, it means that the squid has been fished a few days ago and is therefore not very fresh.

Quickly rinse the aubergine chunks and dry them by blotting with a clean cloth. Drizzle a large pan with two turns of extra virgin olive oil; when the oil is hot, plunge the aubergines
