    Pour in the tomato sauce and stir well to combine with the garlic.

  3. 3

    Season the Sauce

    Add the dried oregano, chopped basil, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Stir to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

  5. 5

    Finish with Parmesan

    Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and well incorporated.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm over your favorite dish or store for later use.
