Tuna Carbonara Pasta is the sea-style version of more famous Carbonara with eggs and pancetta. This version I am suggesting is the Tuna Carbonara Pasta using Bow Ties Pasta.
The tuna Thermomix carbonara that we call "di mare" which means "from the sea", is a very quick first course of fish to prepare, a reinterpretation of a classic with guaranteed success, especially among fish lovers. :-) I like to prepare it for summer guests, when the bacon may be a bit heavy and greasy ... with tuna it's a whole different story! Very good, I guarantee it! ;-) A king dish in Italian eating houses but also in famous French restaurants, carbonara is a dish prepared by everyone who loves it, each one making his own version. In this way, Tuna Carbonara is an excellent fish variation of it.
Egg's creaminess and sweet tendency of pasta must be accompanied by a fresh and savoury wine, while spiciness of black pepper and parmesan cheese flavours need to be balanced with a velvety and lingering-flavoured wine. Lastly, tuna requires a not so firm but very scented red wine, that would be able to support the dish richness. Therefore I suggest you choose the Negramaro Fish wine, a ruby red coloured wine, intense scent, heady and fruity, with a full, rounded and tangy taste.
You can replace the tuna with amberjack or bonito.

Put the cooked tuna aside in a large bowl that can contain all the pasta, you will avoid getting too many things dirty. ;-)
If the tuna sauce is abundant, reuse it to cook the pasta! Transfer it into a container, then pour it into the mixing bowl and add the amount of water necessary to reach 650 g.
Pay attention to the amount of salt: pecorino romano is quite tasty
