Pasta with Cherry Tomatoes and Fresh Basil
I love trying out recipes that I get from either relatives or friends. This is a very simple and quick to make pasta dish that my cousin Kuya W. shared with me and the Little Ones. It is so simple the kids can do this.
What you need:
1 pack of cherry tomatoes or ordinary tomatoes will do too
1 pack fresh basil leaves
Olive oil
500 grams pasta noodles, the original recipe calls for Angel Hair pasta, but you can use any long pasta that you want
Cheese of your choice
Salt and pepper
Using your hands break the tomatoes, place in a huge serving dish or bowl. Next tear up the basil leaves, add to serving dish/bowl. Then add as much olive oil that you want, I don't really measure things, so I just eyeball it. You want to make sure you add enough oil so that the pasta will be coated with oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Next cook the pasta, when cooked drain then immediately add to the bowl with tomatoes and basil. Mix everything together, then you can add cheese. We like using either parmesan or feta cheese, but you can also use cheddar cheese.
