A good pinch of sea salt and ground black pepper
A large handful of grated parmesan cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 200C

Drizzle over the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Sprinkle the tomatoes, garlic and onion with a godd pinch of salt and pepper.
4. Give the tray a good shake to ensure everything is evenly coated . Roast in the oven for 30-35 mins or until the tomatoes have reduced by half their size and the garlic has softened.
5. While the garlic, tomatoes and onion are roasting, bring a medium-sized pot of water to the boil and cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packet.
6. When the tomatoes, garlic and onion are cooked, remove from the oven and, using a fork, carefully push out the garlic cloves from their skins and mash all the ingredients together until you have a thick mushy sauce. Pour a ladle of the pasta cooking water onto the sauce.
7. Drain the pasta and then tumble it into the roasting tray. Add the parmesan cheese and basil. Toss everything together until the pasta is evenly coated. Serve in a large bowl and enjoy!
