First, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Once the water starts boiling, add the pasta and cook for 16–17 minutes over medium heat. After cooking, drain the pasta.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200–205 °C and prepare a large oven-safe pan. Wash the red pepper, remove the seeds, and cut into small cubes.

Heat the pan with canola oil over medium heat. Then add the onion, pepper, and garlic, and sauté everything together for 4–5 minutes over medium heat. After the specified time, add the tuna, peas, and oregano, and sauté for another 3–4 minutes over medium heat. Once everything is sautéed, add the spring onion, pour in the milk, and simmer everything for 2–3 minutes over medium heat, then turn off the heat.

Add the cooked pasta to the tuna mixture and mix well. Then place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes at 200–205 °C. After that, remove the pan, divide the dish into individual portions, and serve.
