A one-pot Italian pasta with sweet cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and creamy burrata.
Ingredients
Method
5 mins prep15 mins cook20 mins total
Put the pasta, cherry tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, hot water, salt and pepper into a wide pot. Bring to the boil over a high heat.
Reduce to a lively simmer and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente and the liquid has reduced to a glossy sauce.
Remove the pot from the heat and fold through the torn basil. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Dot the burrata over the pasta, scatter with Parmesan if using, and finish with extra basil before serving.
Notes
Add the burrata just before serving so it stays creamy and distinct. Use a wide pot so the pasta cooks evenly in the tomato broth.
