Maximum nutrition for minimum effort-pasta, Pecorino cheese and grilled juicy baby plum tomato's




This is no ordinary cheese. Sometimes a small portion of cheese that tastes great is worth it.



Pecorino Romano is a hard salty cheese from sheeps milk. In the UK readily available from supermarkets. It is perfect in salads and sauces.



It taste great with pasta and tomatoes and mixes in well. It is the quality of the ingredients that gives the fantastic taste.




Cook as much pasta as you need for the people you are serving. Grill tomatoes until they are soft. My pic is 4 for one person. These are baby plum tomatoes and great for taste. This cooking time is about 10 minutes for pasta and grilling.


Put the cooked pasta on a plate. Put grated Pecorino cheese over the top and then the soft grilled tomatoes. Tear some basil leaves over the top and grind some black pepper to finish. I added a sprinkling of green olive oil as well.
