Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
6 garlic cloves, smashed
2½ lb. cherry tomatoes (about 4 pints)
2 large sprigs basil, plus 1 cup basil leaves, torn if large
¾ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1½ tsp. kosher salt, plus more
Pinch of sugar (optional)
12 oz. casarecce or other medium-size pasta
1 oz. Parmesan, finely grated (about ½ cup), plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Heat ½ cup oil in a large heavy pot over low. Add garlic and cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes.
  • Increase heat to medium and add tomatoes, basil sprigs, red pepper flakes, and 1½ tsp. salt. Cook, stirring to coat, until some of the tomatoes begin to burst and release their juices, about 4 minutes. Smash some but not all of the tomatoes with the spoon to help release their liquid, then continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until a chunky, thickened sauce forms (about half the tomatoes should still be intact), 10-12 minutes. Taste and add sugar if sauce is too tart and add more salt if needed. Pluck out and discard basil sprigs.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente.
  • Drain pasta, add to pot with sauce, and cook, stirring, until coated, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in 1 oz. Parmesan.
  • Divide pasta among bowls; drizzle with oil. Top with more Parmesan and 1 cup basil leaves.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound pasta
Kosher salt
1/2 cup olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 pints cherry tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pinch of sugar
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil
Freshly grated Parmesan (for serving)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente; drain and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a 12" skillet or wide heavy saucepan over medium-high. Add garlic, then tomatoes, pepper, sugar, and 1 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes burst and release their juices to form a sauce, 6-8 minutes.
  • Toss pasta with tomato sauce and basil. Top with Parmesan.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful cherry tomatoes. This will ensure that your dish is packed with sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. This will help to enhance the flavor of the tomatoes and garlic.
  • Cook the tomatoes over medium heat. This will allow them to burst and release their juices without burning.
  • Add the garlic towards the end of cooking. This will prevent it from burning and becoming bitter.
  • Season the dish with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste.
  • Serve immediately over cooked spaghetti.
