tuna sauce
Ingredients
In a small bowl, blend the cornflour with a little cold water, then stir this into
the tomato mixture in the ActiFry. Add the flaked tuna and cook for 5 minutes,
or until the sauce is cooked and the tuna is hot, stirring once halfway through.
Add the tomatoes, mushrooms, stock, tomato puree, sugar and seasoning.
Cook for a further 20 minutes. Stop the ActiFry once or twice during cooking
and stir the mixture using a wooden spoon or spatula.
