Tuna Pasta Bake With Corn Chip Crunchy Topping Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Butter a 2-quart casserole or baking dish.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms release their liquid and turn golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and cook, whisking, about 1 minute. Gradually add the milk while whisking constantly, then whisk in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring often. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta in the boiling water until al dente according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and stir it into the mushroom mixture. Add the tuna and parsley and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and add 1 cup of the Cheddar. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup Cheddar on top and then cover with the potato chip crumbs. Bake until bubbling and golden brown on top, about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a fairly large pan (preferably a wok) and add the onion until it softens. About 2-3 minutes. Then add the tuna and sauté for another 3 minutes.
• Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree, Italian herb seasoning, oregano, garlic granules and salt & pepper to taste.
• Simmer for about 15 minutes-20 minutes or until the sauce has thickened stirring from time to time.
• While the sauce is simmering, heat the oven at 200 degrees or 180 for fan-assisted ovens. And cooked the pasta shells 2 minutes less than the directed time on the packet. It needs to be a little bit tougher as it still needs to be cooked in the oven. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Drain and set aside.
• When the sauce has thickened add the chopped fresh basil and the drained pasta shells and stir until thoroughly mix.
• Transfer into an oven-proof dish and topped with grated cheddar and mozzarella. Bake for another 20- 25 minutes or until the cheese on top has turned golden brown.
• ENJOY!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4.
• Boil 600g rigatoni for 2 mins less time than stated on the pack.
• To make the sauce, melt 50g butter in a saucepan and stir in 50g plain flour.
• Cook for 1 min, then gradually stir in 600ml milk to make a thick white sauce.
• Remove from the heat and stir in all but a handful of the 250g grated cheddar.
• Drain the pasta, mix with the white sauce, two 160g drained cans tuna, one 330g drained can sweetcorn and a large handful of chopped parsley, then season.
• Transfer to a baking dish and top with the rest of the grated cheddar.
• Bake for 15-20 mins until the cheese on top is golden and starting to brown.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and toss pasta with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an ovenproof baking dish.
• While penne is cooking, melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tuna and cook for 2 minutes. Pour heavy cream over tuna and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add penne and toss well. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and cover with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Stir Condensed Cream of Celery soup through pasta. Carefully fold in tuna chunks, cheese and parsley.
• Pour into oven proof dish. Sprinkle topping on top.
• Bake at 190 degrees celsius on fan bake for 20-25 minutes or until heated through and topping is golden.
• Serve with grilled tomatoes and tossed salad. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Pulse the corn chips and butter in a food processor to make coarse crumbs.
• Toss the crumbs with the parsley and season with pepper.
• Set aside until needed.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta and drain well.
• In a separate saucepan put the tomatoes, tomato puree, garlic, herbs and tabasco, bring to the boil then simmer for 10 minutes.
• Allow to cool slightly or when adding the yogurt it will curdle.
• Add the yogurt and sweetcorn to the tomato mixture and mix well.
• Put the tuna in with the pasta and mix to distribute the tuna evenly.
• Then tip the tomato mixture on top and stir thoroughly.
• Tip the mixture into an ovenproof dish and top with grated cheese.
• Cook in the oven for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden and the misture is bubbling.
• Serve on it's own or accompanied by a green salad.

Steps:

• Open the can of tuna, leaving the lid in place after opening it. Invert the whole can over the sink and press the lid into the tuna firmly to squeeze out as much excess water or oil as you can. (Be careful not to cut your fingers on any sharp edges). Transfer the tuna to a medium bowl.
• Wash your hands well, then grab the boiled egg and squeeze it through your fingers into the bowl with the tuna. Add the celery, olive oil, onion, herbs (if using), mayonnaise, relish (if using) and lemon juice. Using a fork, gently fold together all the ingredients, trying to leave the tuna in relatively large chunks. Grab a few chips and, using your hands, crumble them into the bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and fold again to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste - more salt, pepper and lemon juice if it tastes bland, and more olive oil or mayonnaise if it tastes dry.
• When ready for lunch, spread each slice of bread generously with mayonnaise. Place lettuce on each bottom slice of bread, then top each with half of the tuna salad mixture. Add a generous handful of potato chips on top of each (more than seems reasonable), then close the sandwiches. Press down firmly so the chips break and embed themselves into the tuna salad and the bread. Cut into triangles and serve with extra chips on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 190c.
• In a big pan cook the pasta as per packet with lightly salted water.
• Melt the butter and oil in a saucepan and to it add the bacon chopped into pieces. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook 2 more minutes; remove from the heat.
• Gradually stir in the stock and milk, then return to the heat and cook, gently stirring all the time until the sauce thickens; season to taste.
• Place the now cooked pasta in a shallow oven-proof dish and scatter the tuna on top. Toss lightly; pour over the sauce.
• MMx together the breadcrumbs and grated cheese and scatter over the top. Add herbs either fresh or dried--less if using dried.
• Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
