Preparation

Heat olive oil over medium heat. Add crushed garlic cloves and cook until fragrant.

Add tomatoes, basil and chili flakes and cook for at least 5 minutes until saucy. Cook longer if you like, just add some water so the sauce doesn’t dry out.

Taste and add sugar if you want it sweeter. Cook for another minute.

Remove garlic. Mix in cooked pasta, followed by spinach. Cook until spinach is wilted and pasta is perfectly al dente.

Mix in chopped walnuts and taste, adding salt and fresh ground black pepper as desired.

Serve in bowls, placing half a piece of mozzarella or burrata cheese on top of each if desired.
