Description

This spaghetti dish is a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The salty capers and spicy chili perfectly complement the rich tuna, while the fresh parsley and rocket add a vibrant touch. It's a quick and easy meal that's perfect for a light lunch or dinner. I love how the lemon juice brightens up the dish and brings all the flavors together.

It's especially enjoyable during the warmer months when you crave something light and refreshing.

Preparation (5 steps)

Cook the spaghetti

Cook the spaghetti according to package directions in a pot of salted water. Once cooked al dente, drain the spaghetti and set aside.

Infuse the oil with garlic and chili

Thermomix® Setting

3 min/158°F/Speed 1 70

Add the olive oil, garlic clove, and red chili to the Thermomix bowl and cook for 3 min/70°C/Stufe 1 to infuse the oil. Ensure the garlic doesn't brown too much to avoid a bitter taste.

Combine pasta and infused oil

Thermomix® Setting

1 min/122°F/Gentle stir speed/Linkslauf 50 Reverse

Add the drained spaghetti to the Thermomix bowl with the infused oil. Toss gently for 1 Min./50°C/Sanftrührstufe/Linkslauf, adding a little pasta water if needed to create a light sauce.

Add remaining ingredients

Thermomix® Setting

30 sec/122°F/Gentle stir speed/Linkslauf 50 Reverse

Add the drained capers, chopped parsley, and tuna to the Thermomix bowl. Gently toss for 30 Sec./50°C/Sanftrührstufe/Linkslauf to combine, being careful not to break up the tuna too much. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Finish and serve

Remove the spaghetti from the Thermomix bowl. Toss the rocket and lemon juice through the spaghetti. Serve immediately, garnished with extra chili if desired.
