Easy Roasted Cherry Tomato Pasta Recipes

SUPER QUICK & EASY ROASTED CHERRY TOMATO PASTA SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C (180C fan forced).
• Place the cherry tomatoes in a large baking tray. Drizzle over the olive oil, scatter over the sliced garlic and the oregano, and season well with salt and pepper.
• Toss everything together, ensuring the tomatoes are well coated in the olive oil.
• Pat the tomatoes into a single layer across the bottom of the baking tray, and put the tray in the oven.
• Bake the tomatoes for 20 - 25 minutes, or until the tomatoes have started to burst and the juices are seeping out. Don't allow the tomatoes to blacken too much.
• Remove the tray from the oven, and scatter the chopped basil over the tomatoes.
• Stir gently to incorporate the basil, and to slightly break up the tomatoes.
• The sauce can be cooled and frozen at this stage.
• Bring a large pot of water to the boil.
• Cook the pasta according to package instructions.
• Reserve a cup of cooking water, then drain the pasta.
• Return the pasta to the cooking pot, and tip the roasted cherry tomato pasta sauce into the pot.
• Gently stir the sauce through the pasta, adding a little of the reserved cooking water if it seems a dry. The pasta should look silky, and the tomato juices should coat the spaghetti strands.
• Scatter over a little of the Parmesan, and serve immediately.
