The viral baked feta pasta — a block of feta roasted with cherry tomatoes, garlic and olive oil until jammy and creamy, then tossed through pasta into a silky pink sauce.
Put a block of feta in the middle of a baking dish, surround it with cherry tomatoes, then coat with olive oil, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Roast until the tomatoes burst and the feta softens.
Cook the penne in salted boiling water until al dente, reserving a little pasta water before draining.
Stir grated garlic through the hot roasted feta and tomatoes so it softens in the residual heat, then mash everything into a creamy pink sauce.
Fold the drained penne through the sauce, loosening with a splash of pasta water until every piece is coated, then season with black pepper.
Tear fresh basil over the top and serve straight away.
