Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of cooking water before draining.
- While the pasta water comes to a boil and the pasta cooks, make the sauce. Pour olive oil into a large pan set over medium-high heat.
- Add sliced garlic and allow to fry for a few seconds before adding the cherry tomatoes.
- Season with chilli flakes, salt and pepper and allow to cook, stirring regularly until the tomatoes start to pop. Squash some of the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon to get all the juices to release.
- Once all the tomatoes have softened, reduce the heat. Add the drained pasta with some of the reserved cooking water. Stir until well combined.
- Stir in Parmesan and roughly torn basil leaves then serve.
