Tuna Pasta / Tuna Macaroni

A simple , quick meal in my home is always with tuna or pasta..When it combines together, the making is so simple and fast..Canned tuna is always a handy tool , when we are too lazy or have no time or mood for elaborate cooking.


It was my regular lunch box item in my office ,when Appu was a play school kid and the time when I have no aware of cooking something complex and delicious. But the matters changed..Now with Allah's grace I'm a food blogger with little knowledge about cooking from different sources,especially my beloved mom and mom-in-law.



Ingredients :

  1. Pasta : 250gm
  2. Canned Tuna : 1 can 
  3. Onion : 2 small
  4. Ginger garlic Paste : 2tsp
  5. Tomato : 1 (chopped )
  6. Tomato paste : 1 tbsp
  7. Curry Leaves : 2 springs.
  8. Chicken Masala : 2-3 tsp
  9. Pepper Powder : 1 tsp
  10. Fennel Powder : 1 tsp
  11. Garam Masala : 1/2 tsp 
  12. Salt
  13. Sunflower Oil



Method :

  • Cook pasta according to the directions in the packet,drain and keep aside.
  • Heat oil in a pan and add chopped onion and curry leaves.
  • Saute until the onions get transluscent and add ginger garlic paste 
  • Saute for some time and add chopped tomatoes.
  • Saute well until the tomatoes get soft and then add the tomato paste and salt. .
  • Stir well to combine the masala well.
  • Now add tuna and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Finally add the cooked pasta and combine altogether.
  • Close the lid and cook for 3-4 minutes in medium flame.
