Cook the red lentil pasta following the instructions on the package, being careful not to overcook it. Rinse with cold water and mix with a little oil to prevent sticking. Reserve.
Chop the garlic clove, cut the onion into fine julienne strips and the chilli or pepper into slices, removing the seeds if you prefer less spicy. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half, or leave them whole if they are small.
Heat a little olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and add the spring onion with a pinch of salt. Cook for a few minutes until transparent and soft. Add the chopped garlic, stir a little and add the chilli.
After a few minutes, add the tomatoes and sauté until they begin to lose water and start to take on color. Then add the pasta, season with salt and pepper and add oregano and basil to taste. Cook the whole a few more minutes and serve with fresh basil and cheese, if desired.
