Background
One of my staples in the larder is tinned fish ( Sardines, Mackerel, tuna etc). I particularly like mackerel or sardines in spicy tomato sauce which can save those days when I have toΒ create something within 10 minutes or just canβt be bothered to cook. Β This spicy Mackerel pasta is one of those dishes that canΒ be ready in ten minutes. Also, it can be gluten and dairy-free too -Β and you can use up some veggies in your fridge/freezer for it. I used red bell pepper and spinach β but peas, broad beans, French beans or kale would work too.
Ingredients
- 200g pasta
- 1 red onion
- Β½ red bell pepper
- 2 large handfuls of spinach
- Juice of Β½ lemon
- 1 tin of mackerel in spicy tomato sauce (125g)
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions, then drain and keep warm under a lid.
- Meanwhile finely slice the onion and pepper. Heat a spoonful of oil in a frying pan then gently fry the onion the pepper until tender. Add the spinach and lemon juice. Put a lid on and cook for 2 minutes or until the spinach has wilted.
- Add the fish with its sauce and warm through.
- Mix with the pasta with the fish sauce then serve with some grated cheese on top if you like.
