Spaghetti with Tuna in White Sauce

I have several Special Food Recipes for Lent and Spaghetti with Tuna in White Sauce is one of those recipes.

This is very good. In spite of the rather fussy introduction and directions, this is a very easy dish to make. Bold flavors in a very light sauce: substantial and satisfying, good warm-weather alternative to spaghetti carbonara. You might think the sauce too thin the first time you make it (almost a thick broth), but it will be full of flavor. Quantities of tuna, cream and cheese are variable to preference, just be sure to provide an overall robust combination, always mindful of potential saltiness.

Another trick that I like to do is make some changes. I cut the amount of sauce in half, and the amount of pasta by more, since those were huge portions! I deglazed the pan with a bit of red wine, and seasoned with italian seasoning.

400 grams Royal Spaghetti pasta

1 and 1/2 cup Evaporated Milk

1/4 cup water
pinch of salt
2 tbsp flour
Cooking pasta:
In a boilinng water, pour in the vegetable oil from 1 can of Tuna.

Add spaghetti noodles and lower fire while occasionally stirring it to prevent pasta to adhere in the cooking pan until aldente.
Remove hot water and add cold water to avoid the noodles from sticking. Remove cold water and make sure to remove water well. Set aside.
Makes 10 to 12 servings.
Note: to increase shelf life, refrigerate pasta and sauce in a separate container.
