PASTA WITH TUNA, CAPERS AND SCALLIONS
There are about a gazillion ways to cook pasta using other pantry staples - things like garlic, bread crumbs, pecorino, capers, olives and especially, canned fish. This recipe, pasta with tuna, anchovies and capers, showered with lots of green herbs and scallions, is one of my family's household favorites. I like it with a long, thin, twirlable pasta - spaghetti, linguine or bucatini - but you can use whatever pasta you have on hand. Even macaroni works just fine and might even persuade your finicky kid to eat this dish (though, so far, mine abstains).

Steps:
- In a well-salted pot of boiling water, cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain, saving 1 cup pasta water.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium. Add garlic and scallion whites, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add anchovies and capers and cook until anchovies melt and capers and garlic turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Add 1/2 cup pasta water, let it reduce until there is just a little left in the pan, then add pasta and herbs and toss well to coat. Add tuna and toss well.
- Serve with red-pepper flakes on top, more herbs, scallion greens, and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing.
PASTA WITH MINT AND PARMESAN
The pairing of pasta with mint and Parmesan is a good one. There is something about the lightly assaultive yet somehow sweet nature of mint that is unlike any other herb. Older cuisines use it occasionally, but it is rarely seen as a major player. In this dish, however, softened by butter and cheese, mint converts a basic but undeniably heavy combination into an easy yet complex pasta dish best described as refreshing. To the inevitable question, Can I use olive oil instead of butter? my answer is that you can, but you will completely change the nature of the dish; it won't be bad, but it won't be as good. Better, I think, to cut the butter back to two tablespoons. But because this sauce is cut with the pasta cooking water, the butter is spread nicely throughout, and it really isn't a huge amount per person.

Steps:
- 1. Peel the garlic and toss in large pan with about 5tbs olive oil. When it starts to sizzle, add the tuna steaks. The oil must be very hot for we want to brown the tuna very quickly on the outside, whilst keeping the inside pink and moist (about 1 min. per side). Season with salt & pepper. Remove steaks and reserve.
- 2. Add the tomatoes, turn heat down, season with salt & pepper. Toss the fusilli in a pot of boiling water (salted, about 1 tbsp per liter), add a couple tbsp olive oil and leave to simmer away. Simple and straight, we don't want to mess around with too many flavors and herbs.
- 3. When the pasta is about to be ready (follow instructions on the packet),remove the garlic,dice your tuna steaks into 1/2 inch cubes and add to the tomatoes. Turn heat off. Chop parsley and mint and toss in with the rest. don't worry if it's a bit dry, you can always add some olive oil or, better, some of the pasta's cooking water.
- 4. Drain the fusilli and add to the pan. Toss and mix for the sauce to coat the pasta. If necessary add some of the pasta's water. transfer to serving dish. Decorate with more chopped parsley, a drizzle of olive oil for the shine, and a couple of mint leaves. Sicilian Inzolia (white)is a heavenly match for it.
