For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of red wine to the sauce while simmering. If you prefer a spicier sauce, add a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the oregano and basil. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for an extra touch of freshness. To reduce the acidity of the tomato sauce, add a pinch of sugar while simmering.
