Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 500g dried spaghetti
• 3 tbsp. (45ml) extra virgin olive oil
• 5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 1 red chili, seeded and thinly sliced
• 2 pints cherry tomatoes, halved
• ½ cup basil leaves, roughly torn
• ½ cup (120g) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Directions

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and cook the spaghetti until tender but firm to the tooth.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, add the olive oil and set over medium high heat.
• Add the garlic and chili to the oil and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid browning.
• Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes have broken down.
• When the pasta is cooked, drain it and add it to the pan along with some of the pasta water and toss to combine.
• Add the basil and half of the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the pasta and top with the other half of the cheese.
