  1. In large pot, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil for the pasta.

  2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, warm 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add eggplant and cook, stirring frequently, until it starts to soften and brown, about 10 minutes. Add half of garlic and all the rosemary and cook until the garlic is slightly golden, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
