Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 lb dry spaghetti
1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion diced
6 cloves garlic more or less to taste, minced or pressed
4 roma tomatoes halved and then sliced
1 can (14.5-oz) fire-roasted crushed tomatoes (regular crushed toms would work too - just adjust seasonings)
1 cup heavy cream
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
20 fresh basil leaves (or more if you have them)
2 cups smoked mozzarella cheese grated

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F
Cook spaghetti until almost al dente (be careful not to overcook - it will cook more when it bakes; it should still be a little white in the middle when you put it in the oven).
In a medium skillet, heat oil, add onions, and saute until soft. Add garlic, and cook about a minute more. Add tomatoes, and cook about a minute or two. Add crushed tomatoes, and cook until sauce begins to simmer. Add cream, and cook until sauce begins to simmer. Add oregano, salt, and pepper, and simmer 5 minutes. Taste, and adjust seasonings - sauce should have a good, full flavor that won't be overwhelmed by the pasta.
Lightly oil a 9x9 baking dish, and add spaghetti. Pour sauce over spaghetti. Arrange basil leaves so that they cover the top. Sprinkle smoked mozzarella over the basil leaves.
Bake for about 10-15 minutes, until cheese is completely melted and a little bubbly.
