Tuna in Tomato Sauce with Linguine

I was clearing out some leftovers from my fridge. Half a can of pizza tomatoes and half a jar of great tuna was sitting around. Usually tuna is not cooked in tomato sauce. I prefare it in some kind of light creamy sauce.


But a tomato sauce made from scratch with basic ingredients and the final adding of the tuna gave a wonderful sauce for my pasta.


Take a bit of time when you prepare the tomato sauce. Let it reduce about one third. That is a way to intensify the flavour. Then add the tuna and the fresh herbs.


Recipe:
250 ml pizza tomatoes
3 Spring onions
2 Cloves of garlic
3 tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp piment d' espelette
50 ml red wine
30 ml balsamic vinegar


Fresh herbs
Tuna
Pecorino,  if you like
