Ingredients

  • 350 g fresh pappardelle pasta
  • ½ jar anchovies
  • 250 g mixed cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Garlic oil, for drizzling (1/4 – ½ cup)
  • Dry white wine, for the sauce (1/4 – ½ cup)
  • 1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped
  • ½ cup finely grated parmesan cheese, plus extra to serve

Instructions

  1. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta according to the package directions, reserving ½ cup pasta cooking water.
  2. Heat a large frying pan, then add the anchovies, cherry tomatoes and as much garlic oil as you like. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes soften. Stir through some white wine and bring to a simmer.
  3. Add the parsley and parmesan cheese to the sauce, then drain the pasta. Add the pappardelle to the sauce with a splash of pasta water, tossing lightly to combine.
  4. Divide the midnight pasta between bowls, top with extra parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
