==Ingredients==
* 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (3 times around the pan)
* 3 cloves garlic, minced

* 20 leaves fresh basil, roughly cut or torn
==Directions==
# Heat olive oil and garlic in a deep pan over medium heat.
# When the garlic squeaks, add tomatoes and heat through.
# Stir in basil leaves and reduce heat to low.
# Simmer until pasta of choice is cooked until al dente.
# This is enough sauce for up to 1½ pounds pasta.
# To sweeten any tomato sauce, add ½ a minced onion with the garlic and let it soften and sweeten over medium low heat for 10 minutes before adding to tomato products.
