Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a full kettle.
Cut the medium tomatoes into 2-3cm chunks.
Peel and grate the garlic (or use garlic press).
In a large ovenproof dish, combine the medium tomatoes, baby plum tomatoes and garlic.
Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then mix well.
Place the Greek style salad cheese in the centre of the mixture.
Bake on the middle shelf of your oven until the tomatoes are bursting and the feta is turning golden, 25 -30 mins.
Meanwhile, pour the water from the kettle into a large saucepan. Add 0.5 tsp salt and bring to the boil.
When boiling, add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
Once cooked, reserve some pasta water (see pantry for amount), then drain in a colander. Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent it from sticking.
Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and add the sugar and butter (see pantry for both amounts). Sprinkle with the dried oregano.
Use a masher to crush the cheese, garlic and tomatoes together into a chunky sauce.
Once the sauce is chunky stir in the cooked pasta, reserved pasta water (see pantry for amount) and Italian style hard cheese.
Season with salt and pepper, then mix well until creamy.
Divide the pasta between bowls and top with the pesto. Sprinkle over the chilli flakes (add less if you'd prefer things milder).
Top the pasta with the rocket leaves and drizzle with the balsamic glaze to finish.
Enjoy!
