  • Add the pasta, stir once and cook for about 10 minutes or as directed on the packet.
  • Meanwhile, wash the tomatoes and cut into quarters. Slice the olives. Wash the basil.
  • Put the tomatoes into a salad bowl and tear the basil leaves over them. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and mix.
  • When the pasta is ready, drain into a colander and run cold water over it to cool it quickly.
  • Toss the pasta into the salad bowl with the tomatoes and basil.
  • Add the sliced olives, drained mozzarella balls, and chunks of tuna. Mix well and let the salad rest for at least half an hour to allow the flavours to mingle.
  • Sprinkle the pasta with a generous grind of black pepper and drizzle with the remaining olive oil just before serving.
