Step 1
Add the oil to a medium-sized pot over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is hot, add the garlic and let it cook for a minute or so (watch it closely and don't let it brown).
Step 3
Stir in the red pepper flakes, tomatoes, and sugar (if using, see note). Reduce the heat and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes.
Step 4
While the sauce is simmering, boil a large, salted pot of water for your pasta. Cook it al dente according to package directions.
Step 5
Season the sauce with salt & pepper as needed. I added a fair bit of salt.
Step 6
Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce (you can add a little pasta water too if you wish). Top with freshly grated parmesan cheese.
