Buddy’s Tuna Pasta

Ingredients

  • 1 leek
  • ½ fresh chili, optional
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 400 g tin of quality plum tomatoes
  • 1 can of 80 g of tuna in spring water, from sustainable sources
  • 130 g of dry spaghetti
  • 2 sprigs of fresh basil
  • Parmesan cheese, to serve

Method

  • Cut in half, wash and thinly slice the white part of the leek (save the green leafy part to make broth or soup). Cut in half, seed and finely chop the chilli (if using), and peel and finely chop the garlic.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat with ½ tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chopped vegetables to the pan and cook for 5 minutes, or until softened, stirring regularly.
  • Crush the tomatoes (or break them up with a wooden spoon). Fill the can a quarter full with water, turn it over to collect the last bits of tomato, and pour them into the pan.
  • Drain and flake the tuna, then add a pinch of black pepper and a small pinch of sea salt. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and allow to simmer, stirring regularly, while the pasta cooks.
  • Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of boiling salted water according to package directions, then drain, reserving a full cup of the starchy cooking water.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce, pour in a little of the reserved pasta water to help the sauce stick, then stir well over the heat.
  • Use tongs to divide the pasta between your bowls. Pick and finely chop the basil leaves, then sprinkle them on top and serve with a good grating of Parmesan cheese.

Tips

EASY CHANGES

– If you prefer, use spring or normal onion instead of the leek.

– Use any pasta shape you fancy: penne, fusilli or bowtie, they would all be delicious!
