Throw the whole cherry tomatoes and sliced mushrooms in a baking dish. Generously drizzle olive oil and add the garlic cloves, as well as a sprig of thyme (or dried as an alternative).

Step 3

Slowly roast in the oven for 20-30 minutes, until tomatoes collapse.

Step 4

Meanwhile, cook the pasta in salted water until al dente.
