15-minute Cherry Tomato Pasta
1 lb pasta of choice
3-4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 pints cherry tomatoes
6-7 leaves fresh basil, thinly sliced
1 tsp black pepper
Salt to taste
¼ cup fresh parmesan cheese (add more if you like)
Pasta water as needed
Bring a large pot of water to a boil seasoned with salt.
In a large skillet pour the olive oil and add in the thinly sliced garlic.
Turn the heat to medium heat and let the garlic infuse with the oil until golden brown, this should take about 3-4 minutes.
At this point you can cook the pasta when water is at a boil, so it will be ready at the same time as the sauce. Cook the pasta shy 2 minutes of al dente as per package directions.
Add in the whole cherry tomatoes and stir them around until they soften and start to burst. You can use a wooden spoon to help with this until it reaches a saucy consistency, this takes about 7-8 minutes.
Add in fresh basil. Season with pepper and salt.
Drain pasta (but reserve the water) and add it in to the skillet. Pour in about ½ cup of the pasta water and stir.
Keep stirring the pasta around the skillet for about 2 minutes.
Adjust for seasoning and pasta water, and add parmesan cheese as you like.

Nothing beats the tree tomato and pasta combo do try it
can i use normal tomatoes
Pass taa
Add shallots and you’ll have la pasta sciue sciue
Add some feta cheese……😊😊😊
I love doing this. I always have a bunch of basil and cherries and this is just a great quick “light” pasta . Can also slice in half, get small mozzarella balls and basil for a quick caprese
Infuse olive oil with garlic*
Looks delish.

How much calories in this dish
I made this today. It was delicious.
I had over 15000 cherry tomatoes and that's what I do
I make this every summer with cherry and grape tomatoes from the garden. I call it pomodoro but I’m not 100% that’s accurate.
This is one of my favourite dinners ever! ❤
wow wow thank you 🙂
So is it Parmesan or Parmajohn?
I’ve tried multiple versions and it’s quick, easy and delish.

That wasn’t a saucecYou have to mash the tomatoes into a sauce that was just mushed tomatoes
Puree the cherry tomatoes to avoid the skins
Calories approx?
I used to hate cherry tomatoes because I've only ever eaten them raw in salad but when I ate them in a pesto pasta it completely changed my mind
Those tomatoes need cooking down until they break themselves hun if you wana do it like a pro
Yall go wild with the olive oil
Strange method
