Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Spaghetti

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sugo

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Seasonings

    Add the crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and let simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Cook the Sausage or Meatballs

    In a separate pan, cook the Italian sausage links until browned and cooked through, or cook the meatballs until browned on all sides and cooked through.

    Add the cooked sausage or meatballs to the sauce and mix well. Serve the sauce over the spaghetti and garnish with chopped parsley.
