Pasta with Raw Tomatoes
Yield 4-5
If you'd like to make this more filling, add a cup of chopped mozzarella. You can even add a can or two of tuna.
Ingredients
- 500 gr / 1 pound pasta (any shape will do, but I am partial to bowties)
- 4 large ripe tomatoes or 3-4 cups cherry tomatoes
- Bunch basil
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 1 small clove garlic
Instructions
- Pour the olive oil in a large serving bowl. Crush the garlic into the oil and stir.
- Cut the tomatoes into bite sized pieces and add to oil. Season with salt and pepper and add basil. Stir and let sit so the juices come out. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Bring a large pot of water to boil and add salt.
- Add the pasta and cook until al dente.
- Drain pasta and add to tomato mixture, stir and serve immediately.
