Cooking Attempto! Tuna Pasta

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

I googled for a tuna pasta recipe on the train home tonight and then headed straight to the shops. The recipe was along the lines of:

  • Pasta
  • Tuna
  • Garlic
  • Onion
  • Capers
  • Cream
  • Sundried Tomatoes
  • Tomato Paste

From the above I devised my own version as:

  • Pasta
  • Tuna
  • Mushrooms
  • Onion
  • Feta Cheese
  • Sundried Tomatoes
  • Olives
  • Tomato Paste
  • Garlic

I nearly went insane (really!) and added asparagus. Perhaps next time I’ll add that and see the results.

Anyway, I got organic Feta and Greenseas tuna, they looked like this:

The pasta I used was Fettucini:

By the end I had a strange tuna, feta, mushroom dressing to put over the pasta:

Overall I think it went well. I need to practice with pasta though, I definitely cooked too much and didn’t stir it often enough. I also let the onion burn instead of softening but I’ll work on this from now on.
