How to cook Pasta with tuna
Recently, we are increasingly turning to pasta. Indeed, the dish turns out delicious and varied. After all, practically, pasta can be made with any additives that depend on your tastes, preferences, and of course, your wallet. I suggest trying tuna pasta. Tuna has a lot of protein, and the meat has a reddish hue and almost no fishy smell. It is not for nothing that it is called «sea veal». Both frozen and fresh, this fish is rarely found in stores. Therefore, I will take canned tuna for cooking pasta. Choose fillets in their own juice, a large homogeneous piece. To do this, shake the can of canned food and listen to the sound.
Step-by-step recipe
| 1. |
Peel the garlic. Garlic is passed through a press. |
| 2. |
Pour cold water into a wide three-liter saucepan. Boil the water, add salt and cook the pasta. The cooking time is indicated on the package. Cook the pasta over low heat, the water should boil a little, in a large amount of water. I don’t like Al dente. But you don’t need to digest it either. Pasta cooks very quickly, watch and stir from time to time. Drain the water from the finished paste through a colander. |
| 3. |
Heat a frying pan with butter and fry the garlic. |
| 4. |
We open a jar of tuna, smell it, taste it. If the canned food is good, then we cook further. If a piece of meat is caught large, then we disassemble it into small pieces. Kneading with a fork and making porridge is not necessary. Add tuna, capers and pesto sauce to the garlic, mix. |
| 5. |
We put the pasta in a deep bowl, add tuna in sauce on top. Salt and pepper to taste. Gently mix. We lay out on plates, decorate with basil leaves. Bon Appetit! |
