Set a medium saucepan over medium heat and pour in the olive oil; once heated, add the chopped onion and cook, stirring frequently, until it becomes tender and lightly golden, approximately 5 minutes. Introduce the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until its aroma intensifies. Blend in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper; bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer partially covered for 15 minutes. Stir in the freshly minced basil, remove from heat, and garnish as desired.
