Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Peel and finely dice the onions and garlic. Clean, wash, and dice the zucchini. Heat the oil in a pan. Sauté the diced onions and garlic (careful—garlic burns easily). Then add the zucchini and fry. Halve the bell pepper and chili lengthwise, deseed, and remove the white membranes. Wash the chili and finely dice. Add both ingredients to the zucchini. Add the crème fraîche and mix. Drain the tuna, tear it lightly, and add it to the sauce. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme. Cover and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. In the meantime, prepare the pasta according to the package instructions and then serve. Note: If you want to try it, you can also use dried chilies. But be careful with the amount, as it’s very hot!
