- Saute until onions become translucent
- Now add tomato sauce to the frying pan along with salt,pepper and let the whole mixture boil for about 2 minutes

This prevents pasta sticking to each other and ensures they are cooked beautifully. There are lots of ways in which you can prepare this tomato sauce. I just used available ingredients at my house.
