Ingredients:

  • 1 pound (450g) dried pasta
  • 28 ounces (800g) crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 ounces (115g) burrata cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, extra virgin

Instructions:

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup (120ml) of pasta water before draining.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Add the crushed tomatoes to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has slightly thickened.
  4. Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the tomato sauce. Toss to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.
  5. Divide the pasta between two bowls. Top each bowl with half of the burrata cheese. Serve immediately.
