500gcherry tomatoes, halved
1onion, finely chopped
4clovesgarlic, finely chopped
100mlwhite wine
50mlolive oil
50gParmesan, finely grated

100mlcooking water from the pasta
1-2burrata

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic for a couple of minutes.
Add the cherry tomatoes, white wine and basil, season with salt and freshly ground pepper, and let it simmer for 8-10 min. Meanwhile, cook the pasta for about 1 minute less than al dente. It needs to keep some bite, as it will be tossed through the tomato sauce and finish cooking there for a couple of minutes.
Stir the Parmesan and a little of the pasta cooking water into the tomatoes in the pan.
Then lift the pasta straight from the pot into the pan with the tomato sauce and toss to coat, - keep back a little extra pasta water in case you need to adjust the consistency. Let it simmer for a couple of minutes, stirring.
Season to taste with salt and pepper, - and serve the pasta topped with burrata.
If you like, tear open the burrata as in the photo, and drizzle with olive oil, freshly ground pepper and finely chopped basil.
