2. In a pan on medium low heat, drizzle olive oil and fry sliced garlic and chilli for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. 
3. Toss in chopped cherry tomatoes and continue frying for 3-5 minutes until cherry tomatoes turn soft and mushy. 
   • Tip: Cook until when you press the tomatoes, it can be squished and create a sauce.

5. Once the pasta is done cooking, immediately transfer the cooked pasta to the pan and toss it in the tomato sauce.  
6. Add in scoops of starchy pasta water if needed, to create a sauce which helps to coat the pasta. 
7. Garnish with chopped parsley and enjoy!
