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.

45ml extra-virgin olive oil

How to make Farfalle with Wilted Frisée and Burst Tomatoes
Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, until tomatoes begin to burst, about 8 minutes. Add garlic, lemon peel, and dried crushed red pepper; cook 2 minutes longer. Add frisée in batches and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes total. Season tomato-frisée mixture with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, cook pasta in pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain, reserving 240ml cooking liquid.
Add pasta to skillet with tomato-frisée mixture. Stir in butter. Add reserved pasta liquid by 60ml fuls if dry. Divide pasta among shallow bowls and serve, passing cheese separately.
