Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced (or chop if you like )
1 (28 oz) can whole tomatoes
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp sugar

Directions:

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the garlic and cook until golden but not browned (be careful not to burn), about 1 minute.
Add the tomatoes and their juices, red pepper, oregano, salt, and sugar.
Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer (crushing the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon if using whole) until the sauce thickens slightly, about 20 minutes.
Remove from heat.
