Ingredients
- 100g dry pasta
- Two tins of tuna
- Two slices of smoked bacon
- Two leeks, halved lengthwise and sliced
- 50g parmesan cheese, finely grated
- Two eggs
- 100ml semi skimmed milk
Method
After preparing the ingredients, start by boiling the pasta. The pasta should take about 10 minutes to cook through.
Whilst the pasta is cooking, add bacon to a dry pan and fry on a low heat until browned and the fat starts to render.
Add the leeks and cook for a further 3 minutes, or until the leeks have softened.
In a bowl, whisk two eggs, add the grated parmesan and the milk. Mix well to combine and add this mixture to the leeks and bacon.
Cook on a low heat until the cheese in the sauce has melted.
Add the cooked pasta and two tins of tuna to the sauce mix. Stir on a medium heat to warm through and season heavily with salt and pepper.
I find this dish is best when quite salty and peppery.
Divide into three portions and serve.
Freezing and storage
This dish freezes very and refridgerates well. To reheat, once thrawed, add a little water and microwave for about 3 minutes.
