Ingredients

Servings
  • 10 ounces spaghetti
  • 1 pound cherry tomato quartered
  • cup olive oil
  • ½ cup Parmesan Cheese finely grated
  • cup pecorino cheese finely grated
  • kosher salt to taste
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper freshly cracked

Instructions

  1. In a medium skillet, place the tomatoes and olive oil over medium high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Give the mixture a stir to combine.
  2. Once the oil starts to get hot, and the tomatoes start to blister, reduce the heat to medium and let simmer for roughly 30 minutes. Stirring every 10 minutes.
  3. After 30ish minutes, the tomatoes should be falling apart. Remove them from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve about ¾ cup of the pasta water once cooked and add to the tomato confit along with the cheese and the cooked and drained pasta. Season with salt and at least 2 teaspoons of freshly cracked black pepper. Taste and adjust as needed.

Notes

  • This is the perfect end-of-summer dish. Grab that abundance of tomatoes and get cooking!
