Facciamo le melanzane a dadini e facciamole cuocere in olio ben caldo con l’aglio a pezzetti e l’erba cipollina. La cottura delle melanzane deve risultare quasi come se fossero fritte. Doriamo la pancetta in una padellina a parte e aggiungiamola al composto. Scoliamo gli umbricelli e ripassiamoli nella padella delle melanzane, aggiungendo il gorgonzola a pezzetti ed il mascarpone, sale e peperoncino.
(in the absence of umbricelli you can use noodles)
