Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Spaghetti

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Marinara Sauce

    In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked spaghetti to the marinara sauce. Toss to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce. Stir in the chopped basil.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the spaghetti marinara and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Serve hot.
