Step:

  1. Bring the oil to medium high heat in a saute pan and add bacon, onions, and garlic, and let them cook about 4 or 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are nice and translucent.

  2. Add the parsley and basil, and stir to coat with the oil already in the pan, then add in tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Stir gently a few times to evenly incorporate all ingredients, turn the heat down to medium low, and simmer, uncovered for 12 to 15 minutes while you boil the pasta. If you used whole tomatoes, use a potato masher or fork to break them down toward the end of the cooking process.

  3. Boil the pasta using cold water start method: http://altonbrown.com/cold-water-method-pasta-recipe/
