  1. Roasting the Tomatoes: Start by bringing out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes through roasting, a simple process that promises to enrich your sauce with a concentrated flavor.
  2. Creating the Sauce: The heart of this dish lies in its sauce, a creamy blend of roasted tomatoes, ricotta, Zindrew's X Batch oil, and basil. This is where the magic happens, as the heat from the chili oil works with the creamy ricotta, creating a sauce that's both bold and comforting.
  3. The Perfect Pasta: Choosing the right pasta can make all the difference. Whether it's the classic spaghetti or the textured rigatoni, ensure it's cooked to al dente perfection, ready for the creamy, spicy sauce.
  4. Combining Forces: The moment of assembly is when the dish truly comes to life. Mixing the pasta with the sauce ensures each strand is coated in the rich, flavorful blend, promising a burst of flavor with every bite.
  5. Garnish and Serve: A sprinkle of Parmesan and a few basil leaves not only add layers of flavor but also make the dish a feast for the eyes.
