Methodbased on 2 servings
1

Preheat oven to 180°C/fan-forced 160°C/gas 4 and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2

Toss tomatoes, garlic, chilli and oil and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to tray and roast for 20-25 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and caramelised. Cool to room temperature, reserving any juices.

3

Meanwhile, cook risoni in a saucepan of boiling salted water according to packet instructions. Drain into a sieve and cool under cold running water. Drain again.

4

Gently toss pasta with half the feta, torn basil leaves and the tomato mixture and season with salt and pepper.

5

Divide between serving bowls and top with remaining feta, pine nuts and extra basil leaves.

 

AIR FRYER METHOD:

Preheat air fryer to 180°C.

Toss tomatoes, garlic, chilli, oil and salt and pepper together and transfer to an air fryer safe dish or a small tray that fits in the air fryer.

Cook for 12-14 minutes, tossing halfway through, until tomatoes are soft and caramelised. Set aside to cool.

At the same time, follow step 3 to cook risoni.

Once tomatoes are cooked reduce air fryer to 160°C and toast pine nuts on a piece of foil for 2-3 minutes. Watch carefully, they will brown very quickly. 

Continue with steps 4 and 5 to serve.
