Instructions
Step | Instructions |
---|---|
1 | Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Once done, drain and toss with a bit of butter or oil to prevent sticking. |
2 | Steam the fresh tuna fillet until partially cooked, then dice it into small cubes. |
3 | Finely chop the onion and roughly mince or grate the garlic. Sauté both in butter or oil until fragrant and golden. |
4 | Boil the fresh tomatoes until soft. Once cooked, blend them into a smooth tomato sauce. |
5 | Add the blended tomato sauce to the sautéed onions and garlic. Allow it to simmer until it thickens slightly, then add the diced tuna. |
6 | Stir in the tomato sauce, along with salt, sugar, and oregano to taste. Simmer the sauce until the tuna is fully cooked and all the flavors meld together. |
7 | To serve, plate the spaghetti and generously top with the tuna sauce. Finish by sprinkling grated cheese over the dish. |
Tips
