Instructions Instructions Cook the Spaghetti or Bucatini in a large pot of salted boiling water until 'al dente.' Drain, reserving some of the cooking water.
In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced eggplant and sauté until golden brown and softened.
In a separate saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
Add the diced tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to the saucepan. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine the cooked pasta, sautéed eggplant, and tomato sauce in the pan. Toss well to coat the pasta evenly.
Serve the Pasta alla Norma topped with crumbled ricotta salata cheese and fresh basil leaves.
Set manual and pressure to high for 40 minutes.
When the timer goes off cover the vent with a towel and quick release the steam.
Remove the dish carefully as it will be hot and remove the foil from the dish draining.
