In a medium bowl add the sliced or cubed eggplant and toss with 1 teaspoon of salt, let sit for 20 minutes, then drain but do not rinse.

In a large pan add olive oil, garlic, oregano, hot pepper flakes, parsley and drained eggplant. Gently combine together, then add the water, cook uncovered on low/medium heat for approximately 15-20 minutes (stirring occasionally), then raise the heat a little, and continue to cook until the water has evaporated and eggplant is tender and golden. Toss with 3 cups cooked pasta, and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

Then add to the cooked eggplant, add a half ladle of pasta water and cook on medium tossing gently for approximately a minute. Serve immediately with freshly grated parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy!
