instructions
    1

    Begin by heating a large pot with water. Once boiling, cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions, usually around 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

    While the noodles are cooking, heat olive oil in a separate pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

    3

    Next, add the canned tomatoes to the pan with garlic and bring to a simmer. Allow the sauce to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    4

    Season the tomato sauce with basil, salt, and pepper, adjusting to taste.

    5

    Once the noodles are ready, drain them and add to the tomato sauce. Mix well to ensure the noodles are fully coated.

    6

    Serve hot, garnished with grated parmesan cheese on top.
