Step 1. In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat olive oil over medium-low heat. Add onions and sauté until translucent, about 5-6 minutes. Add garlic and oregano, and cook for an additional minute.
Step 3. Pour boiling water and rotini into the pot. Give it a stir and simmer for 10-12 minutes. You may need to adjust the heat to low if it reaches a rapid boil and starts to splatter. Remove from heat.
Step 4. Add mascarpone and basil and stir thoroughly. If mixture is too thick, add an additional tablespoon or two of hot water. Garnish with additional basil. Serve immediately.
