http {
[...]

proxy_cache_path /opt/nginx/cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=one:10m;

[...]

server {
listen 127.0.0.1:8000;
server_name localhost;
access_log /var/log/nginx/one.access.log main;
location / {
proxy_pass http://192.168.10.10:80/;
proxy_redirect off;

proxy_cache one;
proxy_cache_valid 200 1h;
[...]
}
}

Declaring cache ( proxy_cache_path ) and caching ( proxy_cache ) should
be enough.

Proxy_cache_valid in above example is used to enforce caching for
objects that have no declaration on caching.
