Blanche and core @tomatoes{2}. Crush them by hand. 

Mince @garlic clove{1} and break it down further on the cutting board by grinding with some @salt. Fry the garlic briefly in some olive oil and add the tomatoes. Bring to a simmer and cook it for ~{15%minutes}.

Traditional vermicelli was likely just the thickness of spaghetti, so slightly undercook @spaghetti{100%g}. Finish cooking it directly with the @&(~1)pasta sauce{}.

Top with some @fresh basil leaves{}
