Step 1
Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water until it’s al dente. Then, drain the pasta, reserving a cupful of the cooking water.

Meanwhile, sizzle the garlic and chili flakes over medium-high heat with the olive oil for 1 minute.

Step 4
Add the sun-dried tomatoes and mix.
Step 5
Add the cooked pasta and some of the reserved pasta water to the skillet and mix well.
Step 6
Top with Parmesan cheese and basil leaves, and stir again.
