  2. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant and golden.
  3. Incorporate 3 cups of cherry tomatoes, ½ teaspoon of sea salt, and a pinch of chili flakes. Stir and cook for 5-7 minutes until tomatoes blister.
  4. Pour in ¼ cup of dry white wine and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to reduce slightly.

  6. Toss the al dente pasta into the skillet with the sauce and add reserved pasta water, mixing well.
  7. Stir in a handful of chopped fresh basil and ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, allowing them to meld for one minute.
  8. Top your pasta with 8 ounces of creamy burrata cheese, allowing it to rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
