Fresh Tomato and Mozzarella Pasta
- 300 grams Spaghetti (thin pasta like capellini)
- 3 large Tomato (ripen)
- 1 ball Mozzarella cheese
- 10 leaves Basil
- 1 Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 Salt
- 1 thumb-sized amount Garlic (finely chopped)
- Parboil the tomatoes to remove the skin, then chop into 1.5 - 2 cm chunks.
- At this time, remove the stems and pulp.
- Coat your tomatoes from Step 1 in a large pinch of salt, then put into a strainer to drain off the excess moisture.
- Cut the mozzarella into cubes, and julienne the basil.
- Put about 4 tablespoons of olive oil into a frying pan with the garlic and heat over low.
- When fragrant, add the drained tomatoes and cook over low heat.
- Add the pasta boiled al dente, olive oil, and salt and quickly mix together.
- Add the mozzarella and julienned basil, toss lightly, and transfer to the plates.
