Pasta Preparation
1. Cook the Spaghetti
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the spaghetti. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
2. Drain the Pasta
Once the spaghetti is cooked, reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti in a colander.
Marina Sauce Preparation
3. Heat the Olive Oil
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
4. Sauté the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
5. Add Tomatoes and Spices
Stir in the crushed canned tomatoes, fresh basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.
6. Simmer the Sauce
Let the sauce simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
7. Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
8. Serve
Serve the spaghetti hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese to taste.
