An extremely tasty and light summer recipe, with very few ingredients, requiring a minimum amount of cooking. Try it and it will become one of your favorites. I am giving you the amounts for two servings but it is easy to increase your ingredients according to the number of the diners.
Ingredients Spaghetti for 2 generous servings 12 cherry tomatoes (or more if you wish) (some of them cut in half) 3 tablespoonfuls olive oil 2 cloves of garlic 3 tablespoonfuls white wine Salt, pepper Grated cheese
Directions
Bring a pot of water to the boil and prepare the spaghetti according to the directions on the package.
Wash the cherry tomatoes, dry them and cut some of them in half. Take a large pan and pour the oil in. Add the garlic. You can add the cloves of garlic whole, sauté them so that the oil gets their aroma and then remove them before browning, as they become bitter.
Alternatively, if you like the taste of garlic you can mince it and sauté it for a few seconds on very low heat before adding the tomatoes, salt, pepper and 2 – 3 tablespoonfuls of wine. When the wine evaporates, press some of the the tomatoes lightly to release some of their juices. Don’t cook them too much, so that the tomatoes are still plump and juicy and there is some of their juice at the bottom of the pan.
If the spaghetti is not done yet, take the pan off the fire, until you are ready to drain the spaghetti.
When the spaghetti is cooked and al-dente, drain it and add it to the pan with the tomatoes. You should keep about ½ cup of the water where the spaghetti was boiling, and if they seem too dry, add a little of this water.
Serve immediately and sprinkle some grated cheese over it if you wish.
