Penne Melanzane is a classic Italian pasta dish made with penne, eggplant (melanzane in Italian), tomato sauce, and cheese. The dish is known for its rich and hearty flavor and is a favorite among pasta lovers.

To make Penne Melanzane, the eggplant is first sliced and salted to remove any bitterness. Then it is pan-fried until golden brown and combined with a tomato-based sauce made with garlic, onion, and canned tomatoes. The mixture is simmered for a while to let the flavors meld together before being tossed with cooked penne pasta.

The dish is often finished with a sprinkling of grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled feta cheese for added saltiness and creaminess. Some variations of the recipe also call for the addition of fresh basil or oregano for added herbaceous notes.

Penne Melanzane is a filling and satisfying meal on its own, but it can also be served with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete and satisfying meal. It is a great option for a cozy night in or for entertaining guests.
