Drained spaghetti tossed through warmed jarred sauce. The shortcut: the sauce sub-chain collapses into one shop-bought input. The result is a glossy, lightly clingy pasta — the tomato sauce has had just enough heat to loosen and coat rather than reduce further, so the flavour stays bright and moderately sweet rather than deeply cooked. It holds its heat well in the pan for a minute or two but starts to clump if left sitting; serve it immediately or keep it moving.
