Combining the crispy allure of golden spaghetti patties with the fresh, savory flavors of canned tuna in olive oil and juicy cherry tomatoes, this dish takes comfort food to a gourmet level. Whisked eggs and Parmesan cheese bind the al dente spaghetti into perfectly crisp rostis, seasoned with garlic and parsley for a fragrant boost. Topped with a vibrant mixture of flaky tuna and sweet tomatoes, this unique, protein-packed meal is as visually stunning as it is flavorful. Ready in under 35 minutes and ideal for busy weeknight dinners or casual entertaining, this recipe brings together simple pantry staples with a sophisticated twist.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the egg mixture and toss until evenly combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/4 of the spaghetti mixture into the skillet, forming a rosti (a pancake-like patty). Flatten slightly with the back of a spatula. Repeat to form additional rostis, cooking them in batches if needed.
Cook each rosti for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer the cooked rostis to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
In a separate bowl, combine the canned tuna (drained) with the halved cherry tomatoes. Mix gently to combine.
To serve, place a spaghetti rosti on a plate and top with a portion of the tuna and cherry tomato mixture. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Spaghetti Rosti with Tuna!
