Bring 2 liters of water to a boil in a large pot. Once boiling, add 1 tablespoon of salt.

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Add Garlic
Add 3 minced garlic cloves to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Combine Tomatoes and Seasonings
Pour in 400 grams of canned crushed tomatoes, then add 1 tablespoon each of dried basil and oregano, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
Simmer the Sauce
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Garnish
Serve the Noodles
Place the drained spaghetti onto plates and pour the tomato sauce over the top.
