Ingredients
  • 1lb Farfalle
  • 4 tbsp EVOO
  • 4 garlic cloves, sliced thinly
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 grape tomatoes, halved
  • ⅓ cup white wine
  • ½ cup parmigiano cheese, grated
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese ciliegine
  • Salt
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, chiffonade
Instructions
  1. Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add farfalle and cook until al dente.
  2. While the water is boiling, in a large saute pan set to medium heat, saute garlic in the EVOO for one minute (it should not turn brown).
  3. Add the pepper flakes and tomatoes and saute for approximately 8-10 minutes until the tomatoes break down.
  4. Add white wine and stir. Add a healthy pinch of salt.
  5. Let the sauce reduce for 5 minutes.
  6. When the farfalle is ready, add it on top of the tomato mixture with about a quarter cup of the salted pasta water.
  7. Pour the parmigiano cheese on top of the pasta so that it melts onto the pasta.
  8. With a tong, mix the pasta and tomato mixture. Add mozzarella ciliegine and basil and serve. Enjoy!
