Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 355°F.
  • Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions. Once done, drain well. To avoid the pasta sticking together, drizzle over a little olive oil. In the meantime, drain your tuna and weigh out the peas.

  • For the mushrooms, heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick pan and fry the sliced mushrooms, garlic, and only the white parts of the green onions over moderate heat. Stir regularly to avoid the garlic burning.

  • Once the mushrooms have released all their moisture and start to caramelize, pour in the cream and reduce the heat to low. Bring to a simmer which will allow the cream to warm through and reduce a little, approx. 2 min.
  • Combine the pasta, peas, tuna, and creamy mushroom mixture in a large bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. Tip into a suitably sized baking dish and compress the mixture down with a spatula.

  • Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes to allow the cream to bake down to a thick consistency.
  • While it is baking, grind the pork rinds in a food processor/blender to a fine crumb. Stir through a small pinch of salt.
