  1. Put the egg noodles in a large deep microwave-safe bowl with 250 ml of water and a pinch of salt. Cover with a plate, leaving a gap, and microwave on full power for 6 minutes, stirring halfway.

  2. Slice the mushrooms. Stir them into the noodles with the milk and the frozen peas and microwave for 3 minutes, until the noodles are tender and the sauce has thickened.

  3. Drain the tuna, flake it into the bowl and add the grated cheddar. Stir until the cheese melts, microwaving 30 seconds more if needed.

  4. Season with pepper and let it stand for 1 minute so the sauce thickens before serving.
