6 spring onions thinly sliced
1 cup chopped parsley
2 tablespoons sage chopped
2 tablespoons chives chopped

1
Prick eggplant several times with the tip of a knife. Place eggplant in a parchment-lined bamboo steamer set over boiling water, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add peas, and season with salt. Cook, covered, for 2 minutes. Remove to a small bowl.
3
In the same skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add spring onions, parsley, sage, chives, garlic, cooked peas, salt, and 1 tablespoon water. Cook, covered, until onions are bright green, 3 to 5 minutes. Toss in arugula.
4
Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of salted, boiling water until al dente, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain pasta, and serve topped with pea mixture. Garnish with 1 tablespoon chervil and 1 tablespoon grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
5
Remove eggplant from steamer, and cut lengthwise almost in half. Top each eggplant with 1/4 cup ricotta cheese; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with 2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and remaining tablespoon chervil.
