Miso Eggplant Pasta

Not as tasty as I expected :( I wouldn’t remake it.

Oh we're sad to hear this, Aileen! If there's any way you think we could improve, we're always open to feedback, and in the meantime we hope you enjoy our other recipes more <3

Wonderful recipe super easy and delicious! Had some friends coming by and whipped this together positive reviews all around!

Absolutely lick the bowl delicious!!!

Came together in 30 minutes! A perfect and amazing weeknight meal😊

Absolutely delicious! I added a few chopped sugar snap peas.
It was also a big hit with our 3-year-old and we will definitely make this again! I personally found the amount of salt worked. We used sodium reduced soy sauce.

My husband made this one and raved about how quick, simple and delicious it was to make and our 2 year old devoured it. However, if I could go back I would 100% peel the eggplant. We grow white eggplant and the skin became extremely tough and detracted from the dish. It’s very possible it’s just the variety of eggplant we used, but going forward we’re going to peel regardless of the variety and cook much longer. To illustrate how much my husband loves this dish, he calls me from work every day on his lunch break and if he hears I haven’t eaten and that nothing sounds good he ALWAYS suggests this dish and then describes the steps and ingredients I’ll need reassuring me that I will love it and reminding me how good it was when he made it. It’s quick easy and delicious.

How sweet that your husband is such a fan of the dish! Peeling the eggplant sounds like a lovely idea, especially with tougher skins. So glad to hear the pasta has become such a go-to for your family, Kristi, especially with your little one 🥰

This tasted amazingggggg. Next time I would probably use ramen noodles and cook the eggplant longer (or cut into much smaller pieces). Some chili oil added to this is *chef’s kiss*.

Delish !

This was quite tasty and I had all the ingredients including all toppings. It is always nice when that happens. I did have to cook the eggplant for closer to 15 minutes to get it to where I like it. 🍆

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with the pasta, Nicole! 🫶✨

So tasty and full of flavor and easy to make.

As someone who is not super keen on aubergine - I thoroughly enjoyed this dish, super quick and with a flavourful umami 👌🏽!

We're thrilled to hear this, Josephine 🙌

I'm the same! This is officially the only way I love aubergine 😋

Easy, quick and sooooo delicious!

Amazing dish! This was a super easy recipe and was delicious even for the kids!

I’ve done this pasta twice already and always always a hit. I’m focusing on using your receipe with miso as I have a big jar to go through ! And this pasta is now a staple in my menus! Love the deep flavor and even better if you cook the sauce with a bit of pasta water and end the plate with a bit of Parmesan on top !!!

This was delicious! I added zucchini also just for more veggies. I also only added a 1/4 of the amount of rice vinegar just because I find the flavor overbearing a little and it was just right for me!

Love the modifications to personalize the pasta, Jasmine! 😊

Too vinegary for me

So yummy! I added some bell pepper and a few mushrooms. Can't wait for lunch leftovers

Delicious. Easy dinner.

Used light soy sauce and udon noodles instead. It was yummy! The suggestion to put chilli oil was a game changer

It was pretty tasty. I substituted the soy sauce with coconut aminos and added mushrooms.

Delicious and super easy to make!

This was such a lovely meal! Easy, quick and só tasty! Because even soy sauce less salt is a bit salty for my taste, I used Shoyu mild 12 months fermented soy sauce, a great alternative for a less salty taste ✨💫

Loved loved loved it!

I liked this but found it a bit salty. Also found you need to fry/cook the aubergine for quite a bit longer than the recipe suggests. I added tahini to the sauce to make it creamier.

PUL Team - Feb. 29, 2024, 9:27 p.m.

Hey Anne-marie, thanks for the feedback! Cooking time for the aubergine might also depend on the temperature, we used a medium-high heat with this recipe. Tahini sounds like a lovely idea to make it creamier!

Use the pasta water to make the sauce 🤓 The dish is decent but kind of lacks enough protein and I prefer different ways how to prepare aubergine (esp. baking).

Will be making this again for sure!!

Thank you ^^ Easy, quick, delicious recipe. Might be a bit too salty for some tastes, so careful with how much soya sauce you add 😉
I also threw in some shiitake mushrooms and a bit of ginger, just coz I like them 😁

Thank you PUL team! You are saving my evenings after a long day at work ❤️

Adding shiitake mushrooms and ginger sounds like a delicious twist, Ksenako! We're so thrilled to hear PUL recipes are making your evenings easier and more enjoyable 🤩

Delicious!

Quick and easy and so delicious!!

Absolutely banging!

This is too good! I used mushrooms instead of an eggplant. I also substituted white miso with red miso.

Lovely, but I was missing a few ingredients so it’ll be nice to try it with all the right ones

Simple and delicious! Made with some fried tofu on the side. This will be my quick go-to weeknight dinner!

PUL Team - Jan. 30, 2024, 3:46 p.m.

Fried tofu is a lovely idea, Shawn! Thank you 🙌

this recepy is Miso-Eggplant Heaven ♥️

I made this tonight. I expected a bit more from it, so I added crunchy crumbled tofu(home made) and crushed peanuts for some extra kick

This was so good! I added some vegan minced meat to the sauce and used spring onions instead of shallots which worked great as well

I liked this dish but it would have benefited from a contrasting crunch- I think snow peas would be a nice addition.

Hey Amy, ooh snow peas sound lovely! We strive for 5-star recipes, so we'll keep your feedback in mind for our future recipes 🤩 thanks for helping us improve what we do!

Bit more eggplant creates a bit fuller sauce

I did only the eggplant and miso part cause I didn’t have pasta and wow. Full
Of
Flavor!!!! Thank you guys. I did it as a burger topping.
