**Ingredients:**
– 12 oz of pasta (penne or farfalle works well)
– 2 tablespoons of olive oil
– 1 onion, finely chopped
– 3 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 can of diced tomatoes (14.5 oz)
– 1 teaspoon of sugar
– 1 teaspoon of dried basil

– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 cup of heavy cream

**Instructions:**
1. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
2. In a separate large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they are soft and translucent.
3. Add the can of diced tomatoes with their juices to the skillet. Stir in the sugar, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
