Prepare the sauce in a non-stick frying pan. Put oil, tomatoes, aromatic herbs (except basil and parsley) and wine. Cook over a gentle flame, half-covered, and without water; when the sauce is almost retired, add tuna, olives and basil. Season to taste with salt and finish cooking until retired.
Meanwhile cook fusilli in a large kettle of boiling salted water according to package directions until "al dente" stage; drain very well and pour into the pan together with parsley. Cook for only few minutes in order to complete cooking.
Serve hot.
The secret of this recipe lies just in completing cooking in the sauce!
