the way I like them

Peel and finely dice the onions and garlic. Wash the apple and coarsely grate it, peeling and cored. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and sauté the onion and garlic. After about 3 minutes, add the grated apple and sauté for another 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Then add the tomatoes, a pinch of salt, and oregano. Bring to a boil and simmer uncovered over low heat for about 12-15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with spiral pasta.
