Instructions

• 1 In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according
  to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then
  drain the pasta and set aside.
• 2 Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• 3 Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
• 4 Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
• 5 Add the sliced sausages to the skillet. Cook until they are browned on all sides
  and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
• 6 Stir in the canned diced tomatoes and their juice.
• 7 Add the dried oregano, salt, and pepper to taste.
• 8 Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the
  flavors to meld together. If the sauce thickens too much, add some of the
  reserved pasta water to reach the desired consistency.
• 9 Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to combine with the sauce. Ensure
  the pasta is well-coated. If the mixture seems dry, add a bit more of the
  reserved pasta water.
• 10 Serve the sausage pasta hot, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese if
  desired. Enjoy!
