This pasta recipe has been going viral for a quite a while now. Another viral Tik tok trend that I almost ignored. But glad I did not because the recipe turned out just delicious. My new baking dish made me finally try this recipe. I am so glad I gave it a try. Nothing beats a sticky , rich , cheesy pasta sauce recipe. It is a very easy recipe. Baking a block of feta with tomatoes sounds too easy. Doesn't it ? Best part is it can be made ahead of time if there is a big crowd to feed later. It is very filling and leaves people satisfied.
Ingredients -
Cherry tomatoes
Feta cheese
Olive oil
Garlic
Basil
Instructions -
1. In a baking dish add cherry tomatoes and a block of feta cheese in the center. Add olive oil and give it a toss. Sprinkle some salt. Bake at 400 for 30 mins.
2. Crank up the heat to 450 and bake for another 10 mins.
3. Add crushed garlic, basil leaves and red pepper flakes and mix well .The heat from baking will help cook garlic and basil.
4. Add cooked pasta to above sauce and mix well.
Tips -
1. If you do not wish to change temperature settings you can bake for 40 mins at 400.
2. You can add spinach instead of basil leaves .Play with herbs like thyme or oregano if you have any at hand .
3. A scoop of pasta water will help coat the pasta evenly and smoothly.
