Equipment

  • 1 garlic press
  • 1 medium large pot
  • 1 cooking spoon
  • 1 tablespoon

Ingredients
  

  • 300 gr Rigatoni
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Belmorso Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 can Tuna small or large, whichever you prefer
  • 4 tbsp Cannonata a spicy tomato spread/sauce/dip
  • 1 large burrata cheese about 300 gr
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • oregano about 1/3 of a teaspoon
  • parmesan cheese about 1 tablespoon per bowl

Instructions
 

  • Boil the pasta in plenty of water and salt.
  • In the meantime, prepare your ingredients so you can quickly put together this dish once the pasta has cooked.
  • When it's ready, drain the pasta and save some cooking water. Put the pasta into a bowl for a few moments.
  • Press the garlic and add it to your empty pasta pot. Add a generous drizzle of Belmorso EVOO and let the garlic sauté.
  • Proceed by adding your tuna and mix it in with the garlic and oil so everything gets more aromatic.
  • Then add the pasta back in the same pot.
  • Season and add the oregano, and mix.
  • Next, you want to add the Cannonata and the cooking water.
  • Slice your burrata into smaller pieces, but first cut it into half and enjoy looking at its creaminess for just a moment.
  • Add the burrata onto the pasta and mix over heat, until it melts. It's ok if a few pieces of burrata remain whole.
  • Take off the heat and serve with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Buon appetito.

Notes

This is a caloric dish because of the large portion of pasta and the burrata which is a rich ingredient. To reduce the calories you can use less buratta or replace with mozzarella, and you can enjoy a smaller portion.
