Cook the pasta according to package directions in a large pot, drain, return to the pot, and set aside, being sure to reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the oil and the sliced halloumi.
Pan-fry the halloumi slices for 3 minutes on each side or until golden. Set aside.
To the same skillet, add the halved tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until softened and beginning to blister. Set aside.
In a blender or food processor, add the reserved pasta water, cream, butter, mustard, lemon juice, garlic, garlic powder, dried basil, salt, pepper, and red chili flakes. Blend until a smooth sauce forms.
Pour the sauce over the cooked noodles and turn the heat to low.
Toss to coat the noodles until warm throughout, about 2 minutes.
To serve, divide the pasta between bowls, topping each with the tomatoes and golden halloumi slices. Optionally garnish with slivers of freshly sliced basil before serving.
Enjoy!
