Method
1
Over medium heat add the olive oil to a saucepan.
2
Add the chopped garlic and let it cook for a minute, just long enough to release the flavour, don’t let it brown.
3
Add the red chilli flakes, chopped tomatoes, and sugar (if using). Simmer the sauce on a low heat for about, for about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
4
While you wait for the sauce to reduce add some salt to boiling water and cook the pasta as directed on the packet.
5
Use salt and/or pepper to season the sauce as needed.
6
Drain the pasta. Add both the pasta and sauce into a pan and stir until the pasta is covered. Top with freshly grated parmesan cheese and a few basil leaves.
