• Add chopped onion and anchovy fillet, and saute until soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add crushed red pepper and garlic and saute for another minute.
• Add tomato sauce and reduce heat to low.
• Next, add capers and the cans of tuna.
• I like to drain the oil from one of the cans and leave the oil from the second.
• Break up the large pieces of tuna with a fork or wooden spoon.
• Cook pasta in boiling salted water for about 7 minutes or until al dente.
• Drain, and toss with tuna red sauce in a serving bowl.

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add tuna with its oil and garlic and cook, stirring a few times, until garlic is golden in spots, about 5 minutes. Stir in capers and pepper flakes and cook, 30 seconds. Add 1 cup reserved pasta water; bring to a simmer. Add cooked pasta and simmer, tossing a few times, until liquid is reduced to a sauce that coats pasta.
• Remove from heat and toss in lemon zest and juice, oil, and parsley; season with pepper. Add more pasta water, a few tablespoons at a time, until pasta is evenly coated. Serve, sprinkled with more pepper flakes.

Steps:

• Cook pasta in large pot of rapidly boiling water until al dente or done to your liking.
• Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Place olive oil and the garlic in a large saute pan and turn heat to medium. Cook until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden. Add capers, anchovies, olives, and tomatoes. Cook until the tomatoes start to break down and become a sauce, about 8 minutes. Toss with cooked pasta. Add parsley and tuna and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

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.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about six minutes.
• While the spaghetti is cooking, put the tuna and its oil in a bowl and mash it with a fork. Stir in the tomatoes, garlic, olives and basil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Drain spaghetti, reserving a couple of tablespoons of cooking water. Transfer spaghetti to a bowl. Fold in tuna mixture, adding the reserved cooking water if needed to thin sauce. Season with pepper and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti, reserving 1 1/2 cups pasta water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook onions in olive oil until slightly golden. Add tomatoes and cook until just soft. Add pasta water and pecorino and heat until thick and creamy. Add pasta, capers, and tuna. Cook until sauce coats pasta. Season with lemon zest and juice. Top with panko.

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti for 9-11 mins in a large pan of well-salted water until al dente.
• Heat the oil in a wide frying pan over a very low heat, and gently cook the garlic and chilli to infuse the oil. Remove from the heat if the garlic is turning past light golden, as this will make it bitter.
• Drain the pasta, keeping a cupful of the cooking water, and tip the spaghetti into the frying pan. Toss the pasta in the oil over a low heat, adding a little of the pasta water to emulsify into a sauce that coats the pasta, then fold in the capers, parsley, tuna and some seasoning. Don't stir too vigorously - you want to keep larger chunks of tuna. Toss the rocket and lemon juice through the spaghetti, and serve with extra chilli scattered over, if you like.
