Follow these simple steps to bring this comforting dish to your table:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, then add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until it becomes translucent.
3. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
4. Stir in the diced tomatoes, broth, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
5. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to combine, ensuring every piece of pasta is coated with the sauce.
6. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and let it melt into the sauce, creating a creamy texture.
7. Top with fresh basil if using, and serve immediately.

Cooking is about intuition as much as instruction. As I’ve learned over the years, don’t be afraid to adjust seasoning to your taste—after all, you’re the chef in your kitchen.
