Ingrédients
- ✓227 g feta cheese
- ✓2 pints cherry tomatoes
- ✓120 ml extra virgin olive oil
- ✓4 cloves garlic
- ✓283 g cavatappi pasta
- ✓0.3 tsp red pepper flakes
- ✓1 pinch sea salt and black pepper
- ✓60 ml fresh basil leaves
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 204 °C (200 °C). Toss the cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes with most of the olive oil directly inside a large baking dish. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
💡
Astuce:Keep the tomatoes whole so they burst and release their juices during baking.
2
Clear a small space in the center of the baking dish and place the whole block of feta cheese there. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top of the feta.
💡
Astuce:Using a block of feta in brine yields a creamier result than pre-crumbled feta.
3
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the tomatoes have split open and the feta looks soft and lightly golden on top.
💡
Astuce:You can broil for the last 2 minutes if you prefer a more blistered top.
4
While the sauce is roasting, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 120 ml of the pasta cooking water before draining.
💡
Astuce:Do not rinse the pasta; the starches help the sauce cling to it.
5
Remove the baking dish from the oven. Use a sturdy fork or spoon to mash the roasted feta and burst tomatoes together, mixing vigorously until a smooth, uniform sauce forms.
💡
Astuce:If the sauce feels too thick, splash in a little of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.
6
Add the drained pasta and fresh basil to the baking dish. Toss everything together thoroughly until the pasta is fully coated in the creamy tomato-feta sauce. Serve warm.
💡
Astuce:Garnish with extra fresh basil or a turn of freshly cracked black pepper right before eating.
📝 Notes du chef
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently with a splash of water or milk to restore the creamy texture.
