Ingredients
 
 

  • 200 g cherry tomatoes cut in half
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • sea salt & cracked black pepper
  • 400 g fettuccine pasta
  • 100 g prosciutto roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 1 red chilli large, finely sliced (optional)
  • 1 lemon juice squeezed
  • 2 cups baby spinach roughly chopped
  • 1/2 bunch basil leaves picked
  • 1 tub bambini bocconcini about 220 g
  • parmesan cheese grated, to serve (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C conventional (180°C fan-forced). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • Place the cherry tomatoes on the tray, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, sprinkle with the brown sugar and season well. Roast for about 20 minutes until they start to colour. Remove and set aside.
  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook your pasta according to packet instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water, and set aside to keep warm.
  • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Add the prosciutto and cook, stirring, for about 2–3 minutes until crispy and browned. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same frying pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the garlic and fry over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Add the chilli and lemon juice and cook, stirring, for a further 2 minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the pan, along with a little of the pasta water, and stir to coat. Add the roasted cherry tomatoes, spinach, basil and bocconcini. Toss gently and season well.
  • To serve: Add the pasta to bowls and top with the crispy prosciutto and some grated parmesan, if desired.
