Preparation method

How do you make this?

Preheat your oven to 220° degrees.

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.

Put half in a bowl and the other half in a baking dish.

Season the cherry tomatoes in the baking dish with pepper, salt, and drizzle with 3 tbsp olive oil.

Roast them for 15 minutes at 220° in the preheated oven.

Meanwhile, finely chop the basil and add it to the raw tomatoes in the bowl.

Once the tomatoes are roasted, add them to the other tomatoes and mix well.

Remove the casing from the sausages and tear them into pieces, fry until golden brown.

Cut the mozzarella into 4, place it in the food processor. Add the ricotta and olive oil.

Season with black pepper and fleur de sel. Process everything into a whipped mass. You can always add some juice from the mozzarella for a creamier texture.

Divide the pasta, tomatoes, and fried sausage into large glasses. Top with the whipped mozzarella. Finish with pine nuts and basil leaves.

You can also easily prepare everything in advance, keep everything separate, and when you serve, arrange everything in glasses.
