Rub a large pasta bowl with a crushed garlic clove. Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl, mashing them with a fork. Finely chop the pecorino and mozzarella, add them with the oregano and sugar. Season with a little salt. Finely chop the chili pepper and garlic, and add them to the bowl with the olive oil. Mix everything well and place the bowl on top of the pot in which the pasta water is boiling. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Keep the bowl warm during this time, ideally in an oven at 50°C with the door slightly ajar. Drain the pasta well and immediately add it to the warmed bowl, stir well, and serve immediately. Simply place a bottle of good olive oil and freshly grated pecorino on the table; everyone can then add a little more to taste.
