    My first attempt at this was also not great and I learned where I went wrong which was that I needed to sprinkle salt on the aubergine and leave it for 20 mins then wash it as it takes some moisture out. I then fried in olive oil before using as 'pasta' which worked. I use this and thinly sliced celeriac for a moussaka dish too.
    Sometimes use a low carb wrap as pasta and have made it using diet doctor recipe which has some kind of pasta sub included which works if you can keep it thin enough.
