Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas

tin, coat them in 3 tbsp oil and season generously. Roast

tomatoes are juicy and the juices are sizzling at the
sides of the pan.

Meanwhile, cook the bucatini
in boiling salted water for 9 minutes or until al dente.
Reserve a cup of the cooking water, then drain. Toss the
bucatini, 1 tbsp of its water, the larger basil leaves and
most of the Parmigiano Reggiano into the tomato pan.

of the cheese and smaller basil leaves. Finish with a
drizzle more oil and a dash of balsamic vinegar, if you
like.
