One more easy and delicious recipe with my CUSIMAX Single Burner. The burner is suitable for all cookware, has 7 temperature control options and is perfect for small spaces, camping, RV or travel. Get 10% off for all CUSIMAX products with the SHICOCOOKS10 code. You can check Them here: http://www.cusimax.com/ This recipe is a healthier version of the Pasta Alla Norma. In the traditional one, you have to fry your aubergines using a lot of oil. I wanted to reduce the fat amount so air fried them instead using my CUSIMAX air fryer. It took me only 12 minutes to get the aubergines ready. I also used pecorino cheese instead of ricotta salata, but only because it's really hard to find it here in the UK. The recipe is easy, quick and delicious. Let me know in the comments how it turned out❤️
