Italian cuisine is all about simplicity using just few fresh, simple, ingredients and this plate is one of the most simple, healthy, fast dish that you can make.

I m going to share today, one of  my family favorite recipe and I really hope that you will try to make it, Im sure you will impress your family or friends.

 

Ingredients for 4 people:

• 350 grams spaghetti
• 300 grams cherry tomatoes
• 1 glove of garlic
• Oil
• Salt
• Basil (if you do not have its ok)
• a sprinkle of love, do not ever forget that its important
• Handfull of breadcrumbs toasted if you like them

Method:

• Fill your pasta pot with water, add some salt and turn it on to boil. Toss the pasta in when the water boils.

  In the meantime, wash the cherry tomatoes and cut them in half.
  Put some oil in your fry pan, and when the oil is warm, add the garlic.
  Stir fry the garlic until is nice and golden.
  Now add the tomatoes, sprinkle some salt and with a fork squish few tomatoes so the juice will come out.

  Let them cook until the pasta is ready (15 minutes or more depends on your taste)
  After that, drain and rinse the pasta but reserve a cup of the pasta water.
  Put your cooked spaghetti in the fry pan with the tomatoes.
