  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add chopped yellow onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

    Stir in crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let it cook for at least 15 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.

    Serve immediately, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
