Searing the avocado gives it a nutty taste that is just delicious. The lightly seared squids are just melting in your mouth and taste amazing. Be careful not to over-cook them, as this will make them rubbery and yuckie.

Penne Rigate con pomodorini e aceto balsamico

I first made this sauce when I had some very ripe grape tomatoes (a plum-shaped variant of cherry tomato) left over. I sliced a few of them, threw in the wok with some garlic, chili peppers and rosemary and then found out I was out of red wine, so I used some balsamic vinegar instead. The sauce was surprisingly delicious and I earned a new recipe.

You can use regular tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes, but try to pick the smallest, ripest tomatoes you can find. If using regular tomatoes, cut each tomato to 4 or 8 pieces, according to their size.
