This trofie pasta is my new obsession - so quick and easy and I can’t even tell you how delicious this is! You have to make this.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 250g trofie pasta
  • Olive oil
  • 1 punnet of cherry tomatoes, halved (200g roughly)
  • 320g jar of chickpeas
  • 1 ball of mozzarella
  • 2 tbsp creme fraiche
  • Basil to serve

Instructions

  1. Get the pasta on to cook
  2. Heat a very generous glug of olive oil in a pan - and I do mean generous. Add the halved tomatoes and heat on high until they start to burst and smoosh.
  3. Season well.
  4. Add the chickpeas including their liquid.
  5. Heat on high until it reduces and looks thick and delicious.
  6. Tear the mozzarella into chunks and add the creme fraiche. Stir well, season and set aside
  7. Drain the pasta, and add to the tomatoes and chickpeas. Layer on a plate with the mozzarella, basil leaves. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and enjoy!
