Rigatoni alla Norma —pure Sicily in a bowl. Recipe included.

Nothing fancy here—just real Sicilian comfort food 🍆🍝

Rigatoni alla Norma is one of those dishes that proves you don’t need much to eat incredibly well.

Golden eggplant, a simple tomato sauce, fresh basil, and salty ricotta salata. That’s it. This is cucina povera at its best—humble ingredients, treated with care, turning into something special.

I like to think of this as a perfect weeknight pasta that feels like a Sunday dinner.

Pair it with a glass of red wine, a linen napkin, and you’re in Sicily without leaving your kitchen.
