Tuna, potato & herb risoni
500 g risoni
2 potatoes (300 g), peeled and cut into 2 cm cubes
250 g sweet potato, peeled and cut into 2 cm cubes
olive or canola oil spray
1 onion, finely chopped
300 g jar tomato and basil pasta sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
100 g baby spinach leaves
400 g can chunk-style tuna in brine, drained
freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons shaved Parmesan cheese
Cook the risoni, potato and sweet potato in a large saucepan of boiling water for 10-12 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, spray a nonstick frying pan with oil and heat. Add onion and cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until soft. Add pasta sauce, vinegar and sugar. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until thickened slightly.
