Ingredients

200g fusilli

1 tbsp olive oil

1 onion finely chopped

2 cloves garlic crushed

a good pinch dried chilli flakes

400g tin chopped tomatoes

200g tin tuna in olive oil drained

1tsp rosemary needles chopped to make 1 tsp (optional)

Cook the fusilli following pack instructions, then drain well.

Heat the oven (if using) to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Heat the olive oil in a pan and cook the onion for 10 minutes until softened a little. Add the garlic and chilli flakes, and cook for 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and half a tin of water, then simmer for 10 minutes. Season.
