Method

Fill a large pot with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring it to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Toss in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
