Scale
  • 300g pasta (fusilli or farfalle)
  • 2 balls burrata cheese

  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: red pepper flakes for heat

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add the cooled pasta, cherry tomatoes, basil, and parsley. Toss to coat.
  4. Gently tear and place burrata over the salad.
