Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, sugar, salt, and pepper.
Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook uncovered for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
For a smoother sauce, blend with an immersion blender until desired consistency is reached.
Stir in fresh herbs before serving, if using.
