FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video!
SPAGHETTI WITH EGGPLANT AND TOMATO SAUCE RECIPE || Vegan Aubergine Pasta Recipe || HIDDEN VEGGIES!
SPAGHETTI WITH EGGPLANT AND TOMATO SAUCE RECIPE || Vegan Aubergine Pasta Recipe || HIDDEN VEGGIES!
In this video, we show you how to make delicious Spaghetti with eggplant (also known as aubergine or brinjal) and tomato sauce. This is the perfect recipe for vegans, vegetarians, and also those who want to consume more veggies into their diet. It is particularly great for children (and some adults) who will not even realize they're eating eggplant and is secretly hidden in the pasta sauce! The eggplant and tomato sauce is rich, thick and packed full of flavour. It can be used as a base for any type of pasta, but today we chose to serve it with silky spaghetti.
To make the eggplant pasta sauce recipe, you will need:
2 small or 1 large eggplant (aubergine)
3 tbs olive oil
4 large garlic cloves
1/2 medium-sized onion
1 green pepper (you can use capsicum bell pepper or another green pepper that you have available)
2 large tomatoes
1 tbs tomato puree
1 tsp salt (or to taste)
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp garlic granules
1-2 cups hot water
pasta water (water from boiling the spaghetti or pasta)
finely chopped parsley
cooked spaghetti (or any other type of pasta)
optional: garnish with parsley and grated cheese of your choice (including vegan cheese)
The aubergine and tomato sauce is incredibly rich and flavourful. It can be used as a base for lasagne, pasta bakes or even used as a dip. You can even add mince meat to this pasta sauce and no one will ever know that it contains the added goodness from eggplants!
This eggplant pasta is inspired by the Sicillan pasta alla norma which is a famous Italian pasta dish. It is a fabulous easy dinner dish that will surely be loved by all the family.
