4 servings
- 12 oz dry spaghetti

For the sauce
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup dry red wine
- 1 can (28 oz) whole peeled tomatoes

- ½ tsp sugar

Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Salt generously — the water should taste pleasantly salty.
- 2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 2 minutes. Watch closely, as the garlic can brown quickly.
