Instructions

Cook pasta according to package instructions. Tip: Salt the water heavily as this is your only chance to season the pasta.
While pasta is cooking, heat a large, deep skillet over medium high heat and spray with cooking spray. Remove sausage from casing and cook in pan until golden brown, using a wooden spoon to break the sausage into bite-sized pieces.
When the sausage is cooked, add the onion, garlic, oregano and fennel seeds to the pan, along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the onions are soft and translucent, about 6-7 minutes.
Deglaze the pan with red wine using the wooden spoon to scape up any browned bits from the bottom. Stir in whole peeled tomatoes and tomato sauce then gently break down the whole peeled tomatoes with the wooden spoon. Alternatively, you can use scissors.
Bring the sauce to a boil then reduce to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in pasta and garnish with cheese and basil before serving.
