QUICK AND EASY TUNA PASTA



Quick and Easy Tuna Pasta image

This quick and easy pasta with tuna is ready in less than 15 minutes and is also great as a tuna salad.

Provided by Gav

Categories     Mains

Time 14m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tins of tuna in brine (or oil)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
300g Dried Pasta (I like using Farfalle or Penne, but really you can use whatever you prefer)
3 tbsp Hellmann's Mayonnaise
1/2 small tin of sweet corn
Salt and pepper
Chopped fresh coriander

Steps:

  • I like to use a wok to make this dish, just because you can use it easily to serve up by bringing it to the table and everybody can help themselves. You will also need a colander.
  • Start by boiling a pan of water and start cooking the pasta. I always add a drop of olive oil to the pasta when I am boiling it. Then chop the onion and fry it in the olive oil in the wok until soft, then add the sweet corn (after draining the water from the tin) and fry for about 1 minute. Turn off the heat on the wok.
  • Then drain the tuna in the colander over the sink to get rid of the brine/oil. Make sure the tuna is broken up and the liquid drained.
  • When the pasta is cooked pour it over the tuna in the colander (make sure the colander is over the sink ???? ) to drain the pasta from the water. Then add the hot pasta/tuna to the wok and put the wok on very low heat while you mix everything together.
  • Finally, remove from the heat, add the Mayonnaise to taste, and season with salt and pepper to suit. You could make it look fancy by adding some chopped coriander (but we don't normally bother!).

  • Pasta With Lentils and Mushrooms. Pasta cooks directly in its sauce in this genius vegetarian dish that stars lentils and deeply browned mushrooms. View Recipe.
  • Lemony Tortellini Soup with Spinach and Dill. Silky and comforting yet light and spring-y, this tortellini and spinach soup is the perfect winter-to-spring meal.

  • Green Curry Lentil Soup. Green curry paste adds heat and lots of complex flavor to this 30-minute lentil soup. View Recipe.

  • Broccoli and Egg Fried Rice. A pan full of veggie-packed fried rice is one of the easiest and most satisfying weeknight dinners we know of. View Recipe.
  • Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese. Don’t rush the cooking process on this one. Moderate heat allows the cheese inside to fully melt without burning the outsides.

  • Ramen Noodles with Miso Pesto. This cilantro-miso pesto is bright and delicious on springy ramen noodles. View Recipe.
