- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
- In a food processor or blender, combine the tomatoes, garlic, oil, salt, and pepper and puree.
- Add the basil and pulse just to mix.
- In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the fusilli until just done, about 13 minutes.
- Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce and the Parmesan cheese.
- Let sit for about 1 minute to allow the pasta to absorb some of the liquid.
- Serve with additional Parmesan.
