1
Sauté the Aromatics
In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped onion, and sauté until the onion is translucent.
2
Add Tomatoes
Dice the tomatoes and add them to the saucepan. Stir well and let them cook for about 5 minutes until they start to break down.
3
Season the Sauce
Stir in the chopped basil, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using). Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Finish and Serve
If desired, stir in grated Parmesan cheese before serving. Adjust seasoning to taste.
