Farfalle with Wilted Frisée and Burst Tomatoes

This vibrant farfalle with wilted frisée and burst tomatoes is a sophisticated take on a classic vegetarian pasta dish. By slowly cooking seasonal cherry tomatoes in olive oil until they pop, you create a sweet, jammy sauce that perfectly balances the slightly peppery notes of the frisée. A hint of lemon zest and a pinch of dried chillies add a bright, citrusy warmth that elevates this simple meal into something truly special for a mid-week treat.

Ideal for a quick homemade supper, this recipe relies on fresh produce and minimal prep to deliver maximum flavour. The addition of starchy pasta water and a little butter creates a silky sauce that clings to the farfalle, ensuring a comforting texture. Serve it in shallow bowls with a generous dusting of Parmesan for a light yet satisfying Mediterranean-inspired meal.
