Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large sauce pot. Add the red pepper flakes and basil, and cook for two minutes. Add the onion to the pot and cook for an additional two minutes, followed by the garlic.
Add the tomatoes and the cheese rind to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and cook the sauce on low for 30 minutes, then remove the lid and cook for an additional 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The tomatoes will break down during cooking, but the sauce will retain some texture. For a smoother consistency, blend the sauce after cooking.
Add the ravioli and a pinch of salt to boiling water. Stir gently and simmer for 6–8 minutes. Drain and serve with the sauce ladled on top. Garnish with grated cheese and additional red pepper flakes, if desired.
