Ingredients

extra-virgin olive oil 1 tsp
garlic 1 clove, sliced
cherry tomatoes 125g
rose harissa 1 tbsp
low-fat yogurt 2 tbsp
spaghetti 200g
lemon ½, juiced
basil a small handful of leaves

Method

Step 1

Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the garlic for 1 minute. Tip in the tomatoes with 2 tbsp of water and cook for 5 minutes until the skins of the tomatoes start to split. Stir in the harissa, yogurt and some seasoning, and keep warm.
Step 2

Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti following pack instructions, then drain well, reserving a little of the pasta water. Tip the spaghetti into the sauce, add 1-2 tbsp of the cooking water and toss.
Step 3

Add the lemon juice, tear in the basil and divide between 2 plates.
