Pasta With Blistered Cherry Tomato Sauce | Searching4Zen

Ingredients

• 1 pound (450g) dry pasta
• Kosher salt
• 4 medium cloves garlic, thinly sliced (I personally like more garlic so I use 6 to 7)
• 6 tablespoons (90ml) extra-virgin olive oil, divided
• 1 ½ pounds cherry tomatoes (about 2 pints; 750g)
• 1 ounce fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped (about 1 cup; 30g)
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Mozzarella Balls
• Parmesan cheese, for serving
• Continue to cook until sauce is rich and creamy, about 5 minutes longer. Stir in basil and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Remove from heat, stir in remaining 2 tablespoons (30ml) olive oil, add the mozzarella balls and grate in a generous shower of Parmesan cheese.
• Serve immediately, passing extra Parmesan at the table.
