Cook the penne in plenty of salted water until al dente. Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the spring onions while stirring. Briefly sauté the chopped arugula leaves. Pour in the white wine and stock and simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, wash and halve the cherry tomatoes.

Line four plates with one of the reserved whole arugula leaves. Serve the pasta with the sauce and garnish with the tomato halves and the remaining arugula.
