Steps:
- Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tomatoes, garlic, and red pepper flakes, season with salt, and cook, covered slightly and swirling pan often, until tomatoes blister and burst, 10-12 minutes. Press down on tomatoes to release their juices. Remove pan from heat and set aside.
- Meanwhile, bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a 5 quart pot. Season with salt; add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until about 2 minutes before tender. Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking water.
- Transfer pasta to skillet with tomatoes; set over high heat. Add 1/2 cup pasta water. Cook, stirring and tossing often, until sauce thickens and begins to coat the pasta, about 1 minute. Stir in remaining oil, cheese, and half the basil and toss until sauce coats pasta and pasta is al dente. (Add more pasta water if sauce seems dry.) Add remaining basil, season with salt, and serve with breadcrumbs, if desired.

[email protected]This pasta dish was a disappointment. The tomatoes were mushy and the ricotta cheese was grainy. The basil and garlic were completely overpowered by the tomatoes. I would not recommend this recipe.

[email protected]Meh. This pasta dish was just okay. The tomatoes were a bit bland, and the ricotta cheese was too thick. The basil and garlic didn't do much to improve the flavor. I wouldn't make this dish again.
