Servings:

Equipment

1 Stock pot
1 Large Deep Skillet
1 Blender

Ingredients

1 lb long pasta tripoline, spaghetti, bucatini, etc
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 cups cherry or grape tomatoes sliced
4 garlic cloves smashed/crushed
1 tsp salt more to taste
1 tsp pepper more to taste
3 (4oz) Burrata balls
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp butter
3 basil leaves, torn

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and generously season with salt. Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
2. Cook the garlic. While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes, until fragrant.
3. Cook the tomatoes. Add the sliced tomatoes and cook for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened, juicy, and jammy.
4. Blend the sauce. Transfer the tomatoes, garlic, and all of the juices from the skillet to a blender. Add the burrata and blend until smooth and creamy.
5. Simmer the sauce. Pour the blended sauce back into the skillet and simmer over low heat for 5–7 minutes.
6. Add the pasta. Add the cooked pasta, Parmesan cheese, butter, basil, and a splash of reserved pasta water. Toss until the pasta is evenly coated, adding more pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce.
7. Serve. Top with additional Parmesan and fresh basil, and enjoy!
