1
Bring a large pot of water to boil, then add 2 tablespoons of kosher salt. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions to al dente. Before draining spaghetti, reserve 1 cup of pasta water.

While the spaghetti cooks, halve the cherry tomatoes, and mince or chop the garlic. Set aside.

In a large skillet set over medium-low heat, warm 1/4 cup of olive oil. Add garlic and sauté until golden, about 3 minutes. Then, add tomatoes and sauté for 2 more minutes. Season with kosher salt and crushed red pepper.

Add the cooked and drained spaghetti to the skillet with the tomato-garlic sauce. Pour in 1 cup of reserved pasta water and cook for an additional minute, tossing to coat the pasta evenly.
