Ingredients

8 oz dried spaghetti or other pasta

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 6 oz can of good quality tuna fish

4 oz feta

2 Tbsp capers

1 small lemon

salt and coarsely ground pepper to taste

Directions

Cook pasta according to package directions.

In the meantime, prepare the sauce.

If the tuna is packed in water, drain and scrape the fish into the bottom of a large serving bowl. If the tuna is packed in oil, dump the whole can in the bowl. With a fork, flake the tuna into smaller pieces.

Cut the feta into small cubes, and add it to the bowl with the tuna.

Add the capers to the tuna mixture.

Zest the lemon into the bowl, and set aside the lemon for later use.

When the pasta is ready, drain and immedately pour on top of the tuna mixture. Drizzle the olive oil over (reduce the oil if the tuna packing oil is used) and toss just enough to coat the pasta with oil.

Cut the lemon in two, and squeeze the juice of one half into the pasta. If a more lemony pasta is desired, juice the other half as well. (Be careful not to let the seeds fall in!)

Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Toss the pasta until it is well mixed with the sauce.

This dish can be eaten warm, or at room temperature.
