Pasta

Tomato Sauce

Toppings

Preparation

Pasta Preparation

1. Cook the Spaghetti

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and toss with olive oil to prevent sticking.

Tomato Sauce Preparation

2. Prepare the Sauce

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

3. Add Tomatoes and Seasonings

Add the canned diced tomatoes, dried oregano, dried basil, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine.

4. Simmer the Sauce

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

Final Assembly

5. Combine Pasta and Sauce

Once the sauce is ready, add the cooked spaghetti to the sauce in the skillet. Toss to coat the spaghetti evenly with the sauce.

6. Serve

Serve the pasta hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves.
