PASTA WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND ARUGULA



Pasta With Cherry Tomatoes and Arugula image

This simple, glorious dish, popular in the southern Italian region of Puglia, is an argument for keeping cherry tomato plants in your garden or on your fire escape. Uncooked tomato sauce is juicy and cool on a summer evening. The recipe asks only that you halve the tomatoes (quarter them if they are particularly large), then combine them with garlic, salt, balsamic vinegar, arugula, basil and olive oil. Toss that with cooked pasta, and shower with salty, firm shavings of ricotta salata. Arugula adds wonderful flavor (all the more if you can find peppery wild arugula) and a nutritional punch.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved if small, quartered if large
1 plump garlic clove, minced or put through a press (more to taste)
Salt to taste (I like to use a very good coarse sea salt or fleur de sel for this)
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
1 cup arugula leaves, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon slivered or chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3/4 pound fusille, farfalle, or orecchiette
1/4 cup freshly grated ricotta salata or Parmesan (more to taste)

Steps:

  • Combine the cherry tomatoes, garlic, salt, balsamic vinegar, arugula, basil, and olive oil in a wide bowl. Let sit for 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add a generous amount of salt and the pasta. Cook al dente, until the pasta is firm to the bite. Drain, toss with the tomatoes, sprinkle on the cheese, and serve.

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, smashed
Pinch crushed red pepper
1 pint grape tomatoes, cut in half
1 1/2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
Kosher salt
2 ears corn, kernels cut off the cob
1/2 pound fresh tagliatelle
1/2 cup grated parmigiana
6 basil leaves, chiffonade

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil.
  • Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and add the garlic and the crushed red pepper. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat. When the garlic has turned a lovely golden brown color, remove it and discard. Add the grape tomatoes and half the stock and season with salt. Simmer the pan until the tomatoes have wilted and let off their juices. Add the corn and the remaining stock and simmer until the corn is cooked through.
  • While the corn is cooking add the pasta to the pot of salty boiling water. Cook the pasta until the water comes back to a rolling boil plus 1 minute. Remove the pasta from the water and add it to the saute pan with the tomatoes and corn. Add about a half a cup of the pasta cooking water and cook until the water has evaporated and the sauce clings to the pasta. Remove the pan from the heat. Toss in the parmigiana, basil and a big drizzle of high quality extra-virgin olive oil. Stir or toss the pasta vigorously. Divide the pasta between 2 serving dishes, sprinkle with a little more grated parmigiana, and serve immediately.
  • Buonissimo!!

PASTA WITH BURST CHERRY TOMATOES



Pasta With Burst Cherry Tomatoes image

This recipe may seem like it calls for a lot of mint, but that's what makes this easy pasta dish so refreshing. Cooking halved cherry tomatoes in olive oil until they burst condenses their flavor and caramelizes their edges, and makes a very intense base for the pasta sauce in this dish. Pancetta adds richness and a salty tang, but if you'd rather leave it out, you can. Just toss in some grated pecorino cheese at the end along with the butter.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weeknight, pastas, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fusilli pasta
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, more for drizzling
6 ounces pancetta, preferably thick cut, diced
6 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
Pinch of red pepper flakes
Fine sea salt and black pepper, as needed
1 quart cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
3 tablespoons butter
Fresh ricotta cheese, for serving (optional)
3 cups whole mint leaves, torn
4 scallions, preferably red scallions for color, thinly sliced
Flaky sea salt, to finish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until 1 minute shy of al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 15 seconds, then add the oil and heat until it thins out and easily coats the pan when swirled. Add pancetta and cook until it starts to render its fat, about 2 minutes. Add garlic, red pepper flakes and a large pinch of salt and pepper and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until they burst, turn golden at the edges and shrivel up slightly, about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add pasta to pan and toss with tomato-pancetta mixture; if the mixture looks dry add a little pasta cooking water a few tablespoons at a time. Cook over high heat until the pasta finishes cooking in the sauce. Add the butter and toss until it melts and coats everything.
  • Divide pasta among warmed pasta bowls. Garnish with dollops of ricotta if desired, and top with a generous mound of fresh mint and scallions. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and more pepper before serving.

Provided by Anna Stockwell

Categories     Pasta     Tomato     Vegetarian     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy     Basil     Healthy     Small Plates

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:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe cherry tomatoes. If they're not in season, you can use Roma tomatoes, diced.
  • To burst the cherry tomatoes, heat them in a pan with olive oil over medium heat until they start to blister and split.
  • Use a good quality bacon. Thick-cut bacon will give the dish more flavor.
  • Cook the bacon until it's crispy, but not too hard.
  • To wilt the arugula, add it to the pan with the tomatoes and bacon and cook for just a minute or two, until it's wilted but still bright green.
  • Serve the pasta immediately, topped with Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

This tagliatelle with bacon, burst cherry tomatoes, and arugula is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of flavors and textures is sure to please everyone at the table. Plus, it's a great way to use up any leftover bacon you may have.
