Instructions

Press the tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cube it, season, and roast over medium-high heat until well browned, about 9 minutes.

Add the cherry tomatoes and basil, cooking until softened, about 6 minutes.

Stir in the oregano, fresh basil, pecorino romano and chili flakes for 3 minutes.

Cook the farfalle separately and drain.

Let the tofu simmer for about 17 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the farfalle, garnished with fresh herbs.
