Instructions
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Finely chop garlic. Cut carrot and eggplant into bite-sized chunks. Slice onion into wedges. • Place carrot, eggplant and onion on a lined oven tray. Drizzle generously with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook fusilli in the boiling water, over high heat, until 'al dente', 12 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), then drain pasta and return to saucepan. Drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• When veggies have 5 minutes cook time remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook garlic, tomato paste and Aussie spice blend until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add cream (see ingredients), vegetable stock powder and reserved pasta water and simmer, stirring, until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, add cooked fusilli, baby spinach leaves and roasted veggies and toss to combine. Season to taste
TIP: Combine the pasta in the saucepan if your frying pan isn't big enough.
• Divide Mediterranean roasted eggplant fusilli between bowls. • Crumble over feta (see ingredients) to serve. Enjoy!
