This meal is for those days when you want a fairly nutritious meal but don’t want to work too hard. If you’re really lazy, you could even heat up ready-made pasta sauce, throw in canned pasta, and your sauce is ready in 2 minutes.<\/p>\n
The time to cook might look a bit long here, but it’s really about some initial work, and then letting it cook by itself.<\/p>\n
Time taken: 20 min
\nServes 4<\/p>\n
350 gms\/ 15 oz spaghetti
\n1 150gm\/ 5oz can tuna in brine, drained
\n6 big or 8 medium tomatoes
\n1 onion
\n4-5 cloves of garlic
\n2 tsp\u00a0dried parsley
\n\u00bd cup fresh Italian basil leaves
\n\u00bd cup dry white wine (optional)
\n2\u00bd tbsp olive oil
\nsalt and pepper<\/p>\n
Bring a large pot of water to boil.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, chop up the tomatoes and onion finely. (I like my sauce chunky. If you like it smooth, puree the tomatoes and onion separately)<\/p>\n
Heat the oil in a skillet and add the garlic, and the onion after the garlic turns light brown.<\/p>\n
Once the onions are light brown, add the tomatoes. Add the salt.<\/p>\n
Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, checking occasionally.<\/p>\n
Once the water starts boiling, add the spaghetti and cook as per the directions on the pack. Drain.<\/p>\n
Once the tomatoes are cooked and mushy, add the wine and allow it to simmer till the sauce is at the desired consistency.<\/p>\n
Add the crumbled tuna. Stir and add the basil and parsley.<\/p>\n
Remove from heat, serve on top of the spaghetti.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
