Steps:

Tips:
- Use ripe, juicy tomatoes: This will give your pasta the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, you can use canned or crushed tomatoes. Just be sure to drain them well before using.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the tomatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them watery.
- Cook the tomatoes until they're softened and slightly caramelized: This will bring out their sweetness and flavor.
- Add the pine nuts and basil at the end: This will help to preserve their flavor and prevent them from burning.
- Serve immediately: Pasta with tomatoes is best served immediately, while the tomatoes are still hot and juicy.
