Regardless of what you may think, this recipe isn't too garlicly. The roasted garlic doesn't come across as strong as minced or chopped garlic - and no 16 cloves of garlic is not too much!
Ingredients:
2 lbs cherry tomatoes, halved
16 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 lb dried pasta (spaghetti recommended)
1 handful torn, fresh basil leaves
Preheat oven to 400ยบ
Arrange tomato halves & garlic cloves so that they fit snugly in an over tray or ovenproof pan
Drizzle with olive oil & sprinkle with red pepper flakes, salt, & pepper
Roast until garlic is soft & golden, about 25 mins
Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling, salted water, until firm to the bite
Drain
Return pasta with tomatoes & garlic to the warm pasta pot
Toss well to coat
Sprinkle with basil
Serve immediately
Servings: 4
