This one-pot pasta is perfect for beginners: all the ingredients except the cheese are added to the pot, and magically, you have pasta in a delicious fresh (not store-bought!) sauce. In addition to fresh tomatoes, a tiny bit of tomato paste is added for a rich flavor in case the tomatoes aren't the ripest and sweetest. Sprinkle the finished pasta with grated Parmesan cheese and enjoy your quick dinner, a great way to avoid a mountain of dirty dishes.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Combine the spaghetti, olive oil, tomato paste, garlic, tomatoes, basil, red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium skillet with high sides. Add 5 cups of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking, stirring frequently to prevent the spaghetti from sticking, until al dente and the sauce has thickened, 6-8 minutes.
