• Stir tomatoes into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Season tomato mixture with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
• Stir tuna and 1/4 cup parsley into tomato sauce, breaking up tuna with a wooden spoon while stirring. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 10 minutes.

• Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until beginning to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add tuna with oil, capers, and crushed red pepper flakes; heat through.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water for 1 minute less than the package instructs, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the starchy pasta water.
• Add the cooked pasta to the pan and mix to combine. Add some of the pasta water and toss lightly until the pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, 1 to 2 more minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

FRESH TUNA SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil in a large pot (1 lt of water each 100g of pasta), add the coarse salt and, as it boils again, add the pasta and let it cook for about 9 min. (or follow the direction on the package). You may want to cook the pasta al dente to stir-fry it on the pan with the sauce before serving.
• Chop the tuna fillet into 1cm cubes. Wash the tomatoes, and chop them into 1cm cubes. If you're using big tomatoes, discard the seeds. This step is not necessary for pachino or cherry tomatoes.
• Crush the garlic with a knife and slice finely the scallion. Add both to a large pan with the oil and turn the heat on to medium. Cook for a couple of minutes.
• Add the chopped tuna and stir fry to seal the cubes. Add the tomato cubes and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Let it cook for 6/8 mins and then add the soy sauce and the ginger. Mix evenly.
• Remove 1 cup of water from the pot, then drain the pasta and add it to the pan with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick add a couple of tbsp of cooking water to make it smoother. Stir fry for one minute and serve with a sprinkle of pepper.
