Heat olive oil in a large and deep skillet. Add minced garlic and cook until it is slightly browned,stirring occasionally.

Add tomatoes,salt and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes over low heat.

While the sauce simmers,heat 5-6 cups of water to boil in a pan. Add salt and 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Add spaghetti,boil for 10-11 minutes over medium heat. Drain well and transfer back to the pan.

Add tomato sauce on top of your spaghetti. Cook for 2-3 minutes over low heat until everything is combined ,stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat,garnish with chopped basil and serve immediately. 

*You can pair it with a glass of red wine. (Because tomato-based pasta dishes are acidic, it's best to pair them with a medium-bodied red wine, as a wine that doesn't match the acidity of the sauce will taste bland. A cabernet sauvignon or Zinfandel is a good example of a red wine that goes well with tomato-based pasta dishes.)

Bon Appetit!
