Roasted Cherry Tomato Spaghetti with Burrata and Nduja Breadcrumbs

Spaghetti tossed in a simple, creamy and delicious roasted cherry tomato sauce topped with burrata cheese and crispy 'Nduja breadcrumbs. This is the type of pasta that feels that little bit extra special to be enjoyed on a lazy weekend or served to guests.

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180℃ (350℉).
  2. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place in a roasting tin with the garlic. Add a generous drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and peppers. Roast the tomatoes and garlic for 30 minutes until soft and slightly caramelised.
  3. Meanwhile, add around half a tablespoon of olive oil to a pan and add the Nduja. Fry until the Nduja has melted and has darkened slightly (about 5 minutes). Add the breadcrumbs to the pan and stir into the Nduja until thoroughly coated (about 30 seconds to 1 minute). Once ready, remove to a bowl and set aside.
  4. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season it well with salt. Add the pasta and cook until al dente.
  5. When the tomatoes are done add them to the same pan you cooked the Nduja in along with the cream and ½ cup (120ml) of pasta water. Simmer on a medium heat until reduced and thickened slightly (about 5 minutes).
  6. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce with a small handful of fresh basil and toss to coat in the sauce. Serve in bowls topped with a dollop of burrata and topped with Nduja breadcrumbs.

Notes

  • Burrata alternative - ricotta would work well instead of burrata.
  • 'Nduja alternative - if you don't have 'Nduja we recommend sauteing garlic and chilli flakes (red pepper flakes) in olive oil then adding the breadcrumbs. It won't have the same flavour but it's a nice alternative with a little spicy kick.
  • Storage - leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 1-2 days (the pasta will soften the longer it is left). Save some pasta water for loosening the sauce when you reheat it.
