How to cook deliciously - Spinach omelette

1. Stage

First, for the salad, put the red onion and lemon juice in a bowl and scrunch together using your hands. Set aside for the onions to soften.

2. Stage

Meanwhile boil the penne for 12 mins, or following pack instructions, until tender. Drain and cool under running cold water, then drain again thoroughly. Tip into a bowl and mix with the spinach, garlic, paprika, olives and eggs. Fold in the tuna.

3. Stage

Heat the oil in a 20cm non-stick frying pan. Tip in the spinach and egg mixture, then cook covered over a gentle heat for about 10 mins until set. Turn out onto a plate and slide back into the pan to cook the other side for 5 mins. Serve topped with the red onions, tomatoes and crumbled feta, and sprinkle with a little extra paprika and thyme, if you like. Cut into wedges to serve.
