1. Boil a pan of water to cook the pasta. It needs to be cooked to 'al dente'; firm but not hard
2. Heat a second pan, coated with the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onions and celery to allow them to cook for 3 minutes on medium heat
3. Add 80ml of milk to the cornflour in a bowl: stir until smooth
4. Add the rest of the milk, and the chicken stock, to the onions and celery in the pan. Gradually add the milk-and-cornflour mixture to the pan: stir the sauce until it thickens
5. Take the sauce off the heat and stir in the grated cheese until it melts
6. Add the drained tuna to the pasta, once the pasta is cooked.
7. Add the sauce to the pasta, stir and serve!
