    Steps

    1
    Done

    Heat the Olive Oil in a Small Saucepan and Add the Onion; Saute Onion Until It Is Translucent, 2-3 Minutes, Then Add Tomatoes and Garlic; Season to Taste With Salt, Pepper and Red-Pepper Flakes and Boil Over Medium Heat For 10-12 Minutes Until Thickened Somewhat; Add Basil and Simmer 2 More Minutes; Add Tuna, Turn Off Heat and Allow to 'sit' Flavours Will Blend For 5 Minutes.

    2
    Done

    This Makes a Very Thick, Flavourful Sauce You Can Thin With a Little Boiling Water or Some of the Pasta Cooking Water If It's Too Thick For Your Liking.

    3
    Done

    Distribute Pasta Amongst 4 Plates and Top With Sauce; Pass Grated Parmesan Cheese at the Table or, Alternatively, Toss Pasta and Sauce Together, Then Serve, Passing Grated Cheese.

    4
    Done

    Note: If You Don't Want Your Sauce to Be as 'chunky', You Can Puree the Tomatoes Before Using.
