Spaghetti alla carbonara with tuna and leeks
25 minutes
4 servings
Tuna in Olive Oil 160gr
Ingredients
Rio Mare Tuna in Olive Oil 2 x 80g cans
Spaghetti 350g
Leeks 2
Egg yolks 2 (and 1 whole egg)
Grated Parmesan cheese 2 Tbsp
Olive oil 50g
Parsley A small bunch
Salt to taste
Pepe to taste
Process
1. Bring a pot of water to the boil, add salt and cook the spaghetti until ‘al dente’.
2. While the pasta is cooking, wash and cut the leeks into fine slices. Sauté the leeks in a non-stick frying pan with the olive oil until golden brown and season with salt.
3. Combine the egg yolks, the whole egg and the Parmesan cheese in a bowl and whisk well. Add a little of the pasta cooking water and continue whisking to obtain a creamy texture.
4. Pour the hot pasta into the bowl and toss well until the pasta has absorbed all the flavours of the sauce. Garnish with the hot leeks and drained tuna.
5. Sprinkle with a generous amount of black pepper and chopped parsley.
