5

Chop fresh tomatoes and add them to the skillet, cooking until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.

Season the tomato mixture with salt and black pepper to taste.

7

Drain the capellini pasta, reserving a little pasta water.

8

Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the tomato sauce, tossing gently to combine.

Serve hot, topped with grated parmesan cheese.
