Canned tuna is mixed into a creamy béchamel sauce and baked with pasta in this practical main course, quick to make from cupboard ingredients. The browned topping of kashar cheese (Turkish semi-hard cheese) makes it particularly inviting.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the pasta

10 min

Cook the pasta in plenty of salted boiling water for one minute less than the time on the package, then drain.

2

Make the béchamel

8 min

Melt the butter and add the flour. Cook for a few minutes, then gradually add the milk, stirring to make a thick, lump-free sauce.

3

Stir in the tuna and corn

3 min

Stir the drained tuna and corn into the sauce with salt and black pepper. Mix with the cooked pasta.

4

Bake

15 min

Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and sprinkle with grated kashar cheese. Bake in a preheated oven until the cheese is browned.

Reminder

Important: reserve a little pasta cooking water before mixing the pasta with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, use the reserved water to loosen it. Allergens: fish, milk/dairy products, and gluten (from the pasta and flour).
