TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE: Whenever I want to taste something different and good, I always think of recipes that I can make or experiment on.
The first think you should remember is to add and remove 1 ingredient at the time.
If you want to make something very delicious this recipe is something you should remember. It's very easy, yet affordable.
Gentle reminders before you go on with this recipe:
- Remember, Tuna in Olive Oil ( the one you should use for this recipe ) is already salty. That will lead me to my second reminder...
- Do not use any kind seasonings in this recipe. Use only Oregano. I always try not to use too many because I don’t want to kill the main ingredient, in this case Tuna.

October 26, 2019 This was really good. I didn't have anything to do except for tuna, pasta and oregano so I googled pasta tuna and oregano and found this recipe. That was great I love the combination. |

March 15, 2019 I lived in Italy for 8 years and this is how my friends made it. Is there a way to add cream to this pasta? I'd love a creamier version. |
