Creamy Cherry Tomato Pasta

Instructions

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.

2. 2

   While the pasta is cooking, halve the cherry tomatoes and finely chop the garlic cloves.

3. 3

   In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are soft and start to release their juices.

5. 5

   Pour in the fresh cream and stir well. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

6. 6

   Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the creamy tomato sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

7. 7

   Stir in the grated parmesan cheese and mix until melted and creamy.

8. 8

   Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
