• to taste tomatoes
• to taste a good handful of basil leaves
• to taste extra-virgin olive oil
• to taste salt
• to taste black pepper

2. Put them in a large dish.

4. Tear up the basil.
5. Sprinkle it over the mozzarella and tomatoes.
6. Drizzle on lots of olive oil (at least 3 tablespoons).
7. Add a good amount of salt and just a little black pepper.
8. The salt will start to leech moisture out from the other ingredients and create a sauce.
9. When you are ready, boil the egg pasta until al dente.
10. Drain the pasta.
11. Then pour, still hot, over the other ingredients.
12. Stir the pasta up, coating everything really well.
