Många italienska rätter är vegetariska, vad sägs om den här menyn?

Med en bra Chianti classico att dricka.
Primi:
TORTINO AI CARCIOFI (Artichoke Crust)
4 artichokes
4 tbs. extra virgin olive oil
flour
salt
6 eggs
pepper
2/3 cup grated Parmigiano
Wash and cut the artichokes in quarters. Coat with flour and fry them in hot oil. Drain off excess fat and set aside. Beat the eggs with salt, pepper and Parmigiano and mix with the artichokes. Grease an 8-in. pie pan and bake in the oven for about 20 mins. at 325ºF.
Secondi:
PASTA ALLA NORMA (Pasta with Eggplant and Basil)
1 eggplant
1 clove garlic
10 ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced
3 oz. aged salted ricotta, grated
olive oil
1 lb. penne
10 basil leaves
salt
pepper
Slice the eggplant and place on a cutting board propped on a slant, cover with salt and leave under a weight for one hour until the bitter water seeps out. Brown the garlic in oil, add the tomatoes and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced by 1/3. Add pinch of pepper, remove from heat and set aside.
Wash the slices of eggplant and pat dry; fry in hot oil, place on paper towels to dry, then chop coarsely, and set aside. Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until just al dente and drain. Quickly toss in a large skillet half of the tomato sauce, the eggplant, a few basil leaves and half of the grated cheese over a brisk flame. Then put the pasta in the serving dish, cover with the remaining half of the sauce, the rest of the grated ricotta, sprinkle with a few more basil leaves and serve.

Dolce:
CROSTATA DI LIMONE (Lemon Tart)
Pie dough:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
5 tsp superfine sugar
1/2 cup butter, cut into small pieces
1 tbsp water
Filling:
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup superfine sugar
4 eggs
grated rind of 3 lemons
9 tbsp lemon juice
confectioner's sugar for dusting
To make the pie dough, place the flour and sugar in a bowl and rub in the butter using your fingertips. Add the water and mix until a soft pie dough has formed. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
On a lighthly floured surface, roll out the dough and line a 10-inch loose-bottomed quiche pan. Prick the pie dough all over with a fork.
Line the pie shell with foil and dried beans and bake blind in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for 15 mins. Remove the foil and beans, return to the oven and cook the pie shell for another 15 mins.
To make the filling, whisk the cream, sugar, eggs and lemon rind and juice together. Place the pie shell, still in its pan, on a cookie sheet and pour in the filling.
Bake in the oven for about 20 mins., or until just set. Let cool then lightly dust with confectioner's sugar before serving.
N.B. You might need to add more than 1 tbsp. of water to make the dough stick together.
