Directions
OPTIONAL
(in Italy it's usually served with spaghetti or small pasta, such as bowties or corkscrews)
Place oil, onion, garlic and bay leaf in a saucepan. Add 2 tb cold water (or 1 tb cold water and 1 tb white wine). Cover and simmer on low heat until onion is dissolved (it takes 30 to 40 minutes). Add tomatoes and salt, and simmer for another half hour. Add tuna fish and anchovy paste and simmer for 15 to 30 minutes. Add pepper after removing the pan from the heat. (If you're going to freeze it, just leave pepper out - it can be added after you've thawed and reheated the sauce).
