Pasta with fried Aubergine and Bacon

This kind of dish is the usual fridge raid. 



I had no idea what to cook, but lots of lonesome ingredients waiting for a purpose.

Collecting the stuff on the counter top and thinking on a way to prepare it, is some of the fun. I started with cutting up the aubetgine and placing it in salted water for 30 min. Then draining it. Patting it dry and shallow frying it.



Next was cooking some pasta. From my holiday trip there was an open package of linguine. I took about 90 g and cooked them. When they were done, a splash of oil keeps them from sticking together.



The bacon bits went in the pan first, then aubergines, spring onions and some garlic cream went in. The pasta went in next. Ayvar and some leftover pasta water brings everything together. A bit of Velveeta helps with the creaminess.



Ingredients:

Linguine, spring onions, 100 g bacon, 1 aubergine, 1 tbsp garlic paste, 1 tbsp Velveeta, 3 tbsp Ayvar

Salt, pepper, smoked paprika, thyme, chili
