I have earmarked this recipe for a long, long time but I just got round to trying it out today. I was flipping through my collection of cookbooks, magazines and newspaper cuttings looking for something nice to cook, a dish that uses tomatoes as I wanted to participate in  Little Thumbs Up . Their  theme for March is "tomato". I guess this dish would be perfect for March as it uses cherry tomatoes. 

SK, YS and I, gave the thumbs up to this glass noodle soup!
