Instructions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the cut tomatoes in a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Season with the sugar, salt, and pepper.

In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup parsley, the garlic, and 2 tablespoons oil. Spoon the mixture evenly over the tomatoes and drizzle with another 2 tablespoons oil. Bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes, or until tender.

Prepare the spaghetti according to the package directions; drain.

In a large serving bowl, combine the basil, melted butter, and the remaining 1/4 cup parsley and 1/4 cup olive oil; mix well. Add the roasted tomatoes and spaghetti; toss. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and serve.
