Instructions
Step 1
Put 75ml of the oil in a large saute pan on a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the garlic and fry for up to a minute, stirring a few times, until it’s just starting to caramelise.
Step 2
Add the tomatoes (be gentle, or the oil may spit), sugar, chillies and half a teaspoon of salt.
Step 3
Add 200ml water and stir through for four minutes, until the tomatoes are starting to break down and the liquid is bubbling.
Step 4
Turn down the heat to medium-low and cook for an hour, stirring every once in a while, until the tomatoes have completely broken down and the sauce has thickened. Stir through the torn basil and keep somewhere warm.
Step 5
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to boil, add the pasta and cook for 10-12 minutes (or according to the on the packet), until the pasta is cooked but still retains a bite.
Step 6
Drain, return the pasta to the pan and stir in the remaining oil.
Step 7
Divide the spaghetti between the bowls, spoon over the tomato sauce, sprinkle over the parmesan and serve at once, with a sprinkle of finely chopped basil on top.
