Creamy Tuna Farfalle with Baked Tomatoes
I have this pasta recipe sitting in my kitchen recipe bin for quite a while now. I've been wanting to share it with you but time was so hard to pin down again these days. Finally, my fingers found its way to my laptop's keyboard. This is a very simple pasta recipe to prepare. Kids and kids at heart will enjoyably make a mouthful of this creamy pasta dish. To break the satiation factor of its creamy note and to provide a juicy twist, I've added some baked tomatoes. Creamy and juicy that's how this pasta will conquer your palate.
What you need:
250 g farfalle (bow tie pasta), 2 cans of tuna flakes (drained), 275 ml all purpose cream, 1 cup pasta water, 1 med sized red bell pepper (cut into cubes), 1 med sized green bell pepper (cut into cubes), 1 small onion (chopped), 4 cloves garlic (chopped), 3 tbsps olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, 3 med sized tomatoes (cut in thin rounds, baked in the oven just until tender)
How to make:
Cook the pasta according to package directions then drain. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water. Saute onion and garlic in olive oil until fragrant. Add tuna flakes and saute for a minute. Add bell peppers, salt and pepper. Add all purpose cream and pasta water. Boil and simmer until the sauce is thickened. Stir in cooked pasta and serve topped with baked tomatoes.
