picture blurry. i detest using flash. bad lighting in our house. it’s an ongoing debate between us…

half a box of spaghetti + 1 can tuna + 100gm mushrooms + 5 cloves garlic + 2 spring onions + a whole fist full of parsley + sea salt + freshly ground pepper + 1tbs olive oil + a bit of parmesan, if in your fridge

drop the spaghetti into rapidly boiling salted water. pour in a few drops of olive oil. drain the tuna and flake + chop mushrooms into tiny bits + smash garlic + chop spring onions. use all the good green + roughly chop up the parsley + heat olive oil in a large frying pan.

drop in the garlic in the pan. when it starts browning and sputtering, throw in the spring onions. 2min later add the mushroom. move it all around for 5min. then salt and pepper to taste. add in half the parsley and give it a few minutes. if a littel dry, put in a few spoons of the pasta water. drain the spaghetti and mix it with all the yumminess in the pan. sprinkle all the remaining parsley. top with grated parmesan and more pepper.

a salad of many leafy greans is a must with this – baby spinach + rocket + lettuce + a sprig of rosemary + juice of half a lemon.
