Pasta with tuna, tomato and olive sauce.
I discovered relatively recently that I really like seasoning pasta with tomato sauce and tuna.
It is very simple to prepare and now I will explain how.
Ingredients for two people:
– tomato puree
– a can of tuna (in oil or natural)
– olives (I used green ones)
– onion
– extra virgin olive oil
– salt (a pinch)
– white wine (two fingers in a glass)
– pasta of your choice (I used farfalle)
How to proceed:
first, in a large pan, sauté the onions and oil; when it is golden brown, add the tomato puree, a pinch of salt and the olives.
In the meantime, put a pan with plenty of water and salt on which, during the time you prepare the sauce, it will boil.
Leave it on a high heat for a couple of minutes and when the puree starts to boil, add the white wine (I'm not sure if the wine is necessary but I really like that acidic/fruity note left in the sauce).
In a couple of minutes the alcohol in the wine will have evaporated and you can add the tuna (drained if it was in oil) and cook it slowly.
While the sauce finishes cooking, throw in the pasta and when ready, drain it and add it to the sauce.
