Is it supposed to be cherry tomatoes? Half a normal tomato seems a lot.

Cooking Steps:

Slice up the onion and garlic and soften gently in olive oil. Meanwhile slice up the courgettes into batons (food processors make this very easy work!), and slice the tomatoes in half. Then add the courgettes, followed by the tomatoes a minute or so later. Over a medium heat, simmer until the courgettes have softened and the tomatoes have formed a glorious sauce. This should give enough time to boil some water and cook whichever pasta is you fancy.
At the last minute add the basil, simmer for 1 minute and serve poured over the pasta with a handful of pecorino cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste
