  Really delicious and easy to make. My only addition was a tablespoon or so of balsamic vinegar just before the tomatoes go in to add a bit of depth. Will make again and again, delicious!

  Very very nice! I used half the pasta, one tin of tomatoes and added some chestnut mushrooms and peas for two. Will have the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

  I just did it, it was gorgeous! I'm not so keen on pasta, and the weather is rather chilly, so I cooked brown rice and mixed it with the sauce and baked it in the oven with some grated cheese on the top. But I certainly will try it with pasta also.

  Delicious, quick and simple to make and amazingly my fussy 2 year old son ate it (even the aubergine!) Will definitely make again.

  Easy and quite tasty. Was missing something though - didn't really get the garlic or chilli flavours coming through much, and I used more than the recipe stated.

  I halved this recipe for two and it was delicious. Mindful of Milly's comment I stuck with the whole chilli and two garlic cloves and there certainly wasn't any lack of flavour!
