How to cook your own tuna pasta bake
Simple yet effective...
INGREDIENTS:
-
150g penne pasta
-
15g butter
-
15g plain flour
-
125ml milk
-
70g strong cheddar, grated
-
80g of tinned tuna drained
-
80g sweetcorn, drained
-
one handful chopped parsley
METHOD:
- Heat the old oven to 180ºC fan.
- Boil the pasta for 2 mins less than the time stated on the pack (al dente style).
- To make the sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the flour.
- Cook for 1 min, then gradually stir in the milk to make a thick white sauce.
- Remove from the heat and stir in all but a handful of cheese.
- Drain the pasta, mix with the white sauce, tuna, sweetcorn and parsley. Then season.
- Transfer to a baking dish and top with the rest of the grated cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 mins until the cheese on top is golden and starting to brown.
Top tip: Why not try adding some crisps or tortilla chips to the top of the bake before it enters the oven for a tasty and crispy addition?
