Method
- Bring a pan of water to the boil for the pasta.
- Meanwhile wash and quarter the cherry tomatoes; rinse the capers and mix everything in a large bowl with half the oil, the oregano and a pinch of salt, so the tomatoes take on flavour while the pasta cooks.
- When the water boils, salt it and cook the wholemeal pasta for the time on the packet (usually 10–12 minutes), until al dente.
- Drain it, run it briefly under cold water to stop the cooking, drain well and toss with the remaining oil so it doesn't stick.
- Add the pasta to the tomatoes with the drained tuna and the washed rocket, mix and finish with torn basil.
