Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt to taste
1 pound ziti, preferably imported
3 sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil)
1/4 pound fresh mozzarella, diced
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large clove garlic, crushed, or to taste
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the ziti. Add the ziti and allow it to cook until al dente, about 8 minutes.
  • While the ziti is cooking, place the sun-dried tomatoes in a small bowl, cover with boiling water, and allow them to soak for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, basil, olive oil and garlic in a large bowl. Drain the softened sun-dried tomatoes, chop them fine and add them to the other ingredients in the bowl.
  • When the ziti is done, drain it well, then add it to the mozzarella mixture in the bowl, toss the ingredients together and season with salt and pepper. Serve while still warm.

This pasta dish is a bit spicy, so I usually add a little bit of sugar to balance out the flavors.

I like to serve this pasta dish with a side of crusty bread. It's the perfect way to soak up all the delicious sauce.

This pasta dish is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I often add chopped spinach, zucchini, or mushrooms to the sauce.

I love the combination of flavors in this pasta dish. The sweetness of the tomatoes, the saltiness of the anchovies, and the spiciness of the red pepper flakes come together perfectly.
