Tuna, Pea, Onion and Cheese Spaghetti

Here is a simple yet tasty supper or lunch. This was another of my 'store cupboard suppers' as I created it with what I had left in the fridge. It turned out very tasty!

Ingredients (serves 2 with a little extra for the fridge):

Tin of tuna, drained

4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

4-5 spring onions, sliced

1 small red onion, finely sliced

About 50g soft cheese (or whatever's left in the bottom of the tub!)

Green Chilli, finely chopped (optional)

Grated Italian hard cheese (Parmesan, Grana Padano, Pecorino etc.)

Handful frozen peas

salt, pepper 

Dash of olive oil

Spaghetti (or Linguine) boiled until al dente

Dash of white wine

Handful flat leaf parsley, finely chopped

Method:

1. Cook the pasta and heat the oil in either a frying pan or wok.
2. Add the red onion to the oil and fry on medium for a few minutes. Now add the garlic, chilli (if using) and peas. Fry for another couple of minutes before adding the cheese to the pan and a dash of white wine.
3. Turn up the heat a little and when the cheese has melted a bit add the tuna, spring onions, parsley, a sprinkle of hard cheese and season with salt and pepper.
4. Once heated through toss in the spaghetti with a little pasta water. Serve and garnish with hard cheese, parsley and a grinding of fresh black pepper. Bon Appetit!
