Brinjal, olive and harissa pasta




This dish is bold, textural and delightfully unexpected. Ottolenghi’s Roasted Aubergine & Harissa sauce coats the pasta shells beautifully, while the green olives add bite and depth. Serve it with a fresh shaved fennel and celery salad for contrast – a perfect plate for relaxed al fresco dining.
