Summer Spaghetti with Cherry Tomatoes, Basil, and Burrata
INGREDIENTS
1 pound spaghetti, cooked according to instructions
3-4 cups cherry tomatoes
6 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons white wine
6 tablespoons olive oil
Red chili flakes
Big handful of basil, divided
Pinch of sugar (optional)
Salt
Pepper
Burrata or parmesan to garnish (optional)
METHOD
Heat olive oil over medium-low heat in a large skillet or dutch oven. Add a big pinch of red chili flakes and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. Tear half of the basil and add to the oil.
Add in cherry tomatoes, wine, sugar if using, and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for 10-15 minutes until tomatoes begin to burst and cook down.
Add in cooked pasta (I like it al-dente) and combine. Taste for seasoning.
Garnish with remaining basil and burrata/parmesan if using.
