01

Prepare the components

Halve the tomatoes, mince the garlic and cook the pasta according to its package guidance. Reserve some cooking water before draining; the recipe uses it to help bring the sauce together.

02

Combine and finish

Toast the tomatoes, gently sauté the garlic and combine them in a skillet. Add reserved water as needed, toss with the pasta and finish with olive oil, pepper and cilantro. The original recipe is intended for five to six servings.
