I can't overemphasise how easy this is: a few ingredients thrown into a roasting pan and whacked in the oven. All you have to do then is cook your pasta.

Ingredients

  • 450g mixed cherry tomatoes

  • 1 cup mixed marinated olives

  • ½ cup olive oil

  • ½ tsp dried oregano

  • 3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped

  • 1 bird's eye chilli, roughly chopped

  • 500g dried fusilli pasta

  • 1 tbsp finely chopped parsley

  • handful of torn basil leaves

Method

  1. 1. Heat your oven to 180C fan-forced (200C conventional). Combine cherry tomatoes, olives, olive oil, oregano, garlic and chilli in a pan and roast until the tomatoes have broken down and the olives are wrinkled, about 30 minutes. 

    2. Cook the pasta according to packet directions, testing for doneness from 2 minutes before the specified time. Drain, reserving ¼ cup of the pasta water. Stir the pasta, pasta water, parsley and basil through the olive and tomato mixture in the hot roasting pan. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then serve.
