Method

Ingredients

Cook the pasta in plenty of salted boiling water.

Meanwhile, make the coriander oil by blending together the 85ml olive oil, coriander, chilli, garlic and sea salt.

Oil and season the tuna and sear in a hot pan.

Drain the pasta and mix with the coriander oil.

Turn the pasta into 4 bowls. Top with shreds of tuna, chevin and coriander and season, to taste. Drizzle with olive oil.

Cook’s notes: Instead of fresh, use drained, canned tuna and some chopped anchovies. Try grated goat’s-milk pecorino in place of the chevin. Use yellowtail and basil instead of tuna and coriander.
