Burst Cherry Tomato Pasta

Roast all the ingredients in a sheet pan, boil some pasta and you’re minutes away from a delicious dinner. We've favoured the vegan-friendly Pesto Princess Basil & Lemon Pesto for this dish but choose your favourite pesto from our range!

Ingredients

  • 800 g cherry tomatoes
  • 4 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 2 Tbsp fresh thyme
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh oregano
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp chilli flakes (or to taste)
  • 1/3 cup white wine (we used Sauvignon Blanc)
  • 500 g tagliatelle
  • Juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 3 Tbsp Pesto Princess Basil & Lemon Pesto

How to

  1. Place your tomatoes in a roasting pan together with the garlic, fresh thyme, oregano, chilli flakes and olive oil. Give them all a good mix. Roast at 180°C for between 20 and 30 minutes.
  2. Add the wine to the roasting dish and return for another 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and scrape off all that gooey deliciousness from the bottom of the roasting pan.

  3. While the tomatoes are roasting, bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Just before draining, remove a cup of pasta cooking water.
  4. Add the pasta to the tomatoes in the roasting pan and toss to combine. Dollop on the Pesto Princess Basil & Lemon Pesto and splashes of the reserved pasta water to loosen and create the most delicious sauce!
