1. Cook the penne according to the pack instructions. While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil very gently and add the chilli, if using, and the spring onions. Slowly cook the spring onion until wilted, then add the cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with the sugar. Turn up the heat and cook until the tomatoes are blistered.
2. Drain the pasta and tip into a large bowl. Toss with everything from the tomato pan and the lemon juice. Serve in pasta bowls with grated parmesan.

  Very nice - I added just a little chilli - a quarter of one - to give a little spice.

  Was very nice even though I had no chilli or spring onion - I used chilli powder and onion instead. Quick and easy

  This is very good with just a little modification. I combined it with another pasta recipe by added a tablespoon or so of capers and some Kalamata olives at the same time as the tomatoes and it is so good. Perfect pasta
