A 5-ingredient favorite recipe!

The flavors are explosive thanks to roasted tomatoes and garlic. I also love that the tuna oil is used to enrich the sauce – the taste is truly amazing and pairs perfectly with the tomato sauce.

Why make this recipe?

  • A creamy sauce without cream: the pasta cooking water helps emulsify the tuna oil and tomatoes for a silky texture.
  • Authentic Mediterranean flavors: tuna in oil, black olives, and roasted tomatoes create a perfect balance of sweetness, acidity, and saltiness.
  • Quick, convenient, and few ingredients: ready in under 30 minutes, using pantry staples like canned tuna, pasta, and tomatoes.
