: Boil the Pasta
Start boiling some water in a pot. You will need approximately 1 litre of water and 10g of salt for every 100g of pasta. When the water comes to a boil, add the salt and then add the pasta. It should cook in 8-10 minutes. Keep an eye on it. Once done, drain.
: Cook
Pan fry the Fish:
Season the fish with salt and pepper, just before cooking. Heat some oil in a pan, start frying the fillets. Roughly 3 minutes aside on a medium heat. Once the fillets are cooked and slightly coloured on both sides, keep them aside.
Pasta:
In the same pan, add some more oil and sauté the shallots and garlic for a minute. Then add the cherry tomatoes and some water from the pasta 2 tablespoons approximately. Let it cook for 5 minutes on a gentle heat and then crush the cherry tomatoes (with a large spoon) once they are soft enough. Add the basil leaves. Once the pasta is ready, take it out of the water and directly put into this pan. Check and adjust the seasoning.
