Fill a large pot with water and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.

Boil Water

Once the water is boiling, add 200 grams of pasta. Cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.

Cook Pasta

Once cooked, drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.

In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 medium chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Mince 3 cloves of garlic and add them to the saucepan. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Pour in 400 grams of canned tomatoes, crushing them with a spoon as you add them. Stir well.

Add 1 tablespoon of basil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir to combine and let the sauce simmer for about 15 minutes.

Once the sauce has simmered, add the drained pasta to the sauce. Toss well to combine, ensuring all pasta is coated.
