    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium saucepan. Add the tomatoes, sugar, and pepper to taste, and toss over medium heat for a few minutes until the tomatoes soften and the juices run. Snip a few anchovies at a time into the pan of tomatoes with kitchen scissors.

    Add the wine, tuna, and olives and stir once or twice until they are just evenly mixed into the sauce. Add the mozzarella and heat through without stirring. Taste and add salt if necessary. Drain the pasta and turn it into a warmed bowl. Pour the sauce over; toss gently and sprinkle with basil leaves. Serve immediately.
