Fusilli amore mio

This form of pasta is called "fusilli" (spireled shape pasta). This form should be of the best quality if you wish to have a pasta "al dente"(well cooked) because tends to get overcooked.
Here is the recipe:

FUSILLI AL TONNO (tuna fish fusilli)
Ingredients (4persons)
400g pasta
1 can (160g) tuna fish
1/2 cup tomatoes (fresh or drained if canned)
4 spoons extra virgin olive oil
garlic, salt, rosmary, parsley
Put the water to boil, and in the meantime:

In a medium skillet put the oil, sautè the garlic (do no let burn it!). Drain the oil from the can and toss the tuna fish in the skillet, with a fork try to mince the pulp; put 1 teaspoon of rosmary, the tomatoes and salt. Let cook for about 10minutes. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it, put on a bowl, season with olive oil and parsley.

Sandro made spaghetti al tonno for me when he came up to Ithaca with me (almost eight years ago!). Looks good!
