Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Spaghetti

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant but not browned, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the chopped Roma tomatoes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften. Season with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Toss the Spaghetti

    Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss to combine, ensuring the pasta is well coated with the garlic olive oil sauce.

  5. 5

    Add Mozzarella and Basil

    Remove the skillet from heat and gently fold in the fresh mozzarella and basil leaves. Allow the mozzarella to soften slightly from the heat.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately, garnished with extra basil if desired.
