Easy Red Sauce

With green garlic and passata available, a great pasta sauce is minutes away.
Saute 2 or 3 cloves of minced garlic with some salt, a pinch of red chili flakes and oregano (1/2 t dried or 2T fresh).
When the garlic has become fragrant, pour in a jar of passata. Add half a cup of water to the jar, give it a swirl, and pour that into the pan as well.
Add a handful of basil leaves and simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes, while you cook up some pasta.
Test for seasoning; a touch of balsamic vinegar will round out the flavor if it is too tart.
