SPAGHETTI ALLA CARLOFORTINA (SPAGHETTI WITH FRESH TUNA, CREAM OF
I got this recipe from the Australian Womans Weekly and loved it. I love the versality of a pasta dish and this was no different. It is a nice healthy alternative to so many of the heavy cream based pasta dishes that are on offer, yet has the creaminess included in the basil sauce! Its a win win recipe.
