1

Prepare the Fregola

In a large pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add the fregola pasta and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then, add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for another 5-7 minutes until they start to soften.

3

Combine Ingredients

Add the cooked fregola to the skillet with the tomatoes. Stir in the chopped basil, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

Serve

Remove from heat and let it sit for a minute. Serve warm, garnished with additional basil and Parmesan if desired.
