Warm Curried Tuna image

This is from Madhur Jaffrey's Quick and Easy Indian Cooking book. I love this warm, hot, or cold stuffed in pita bread. It is so quick and simple and has so much flavor!

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil (I use olive)
1 small onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained (use good quality tuna)
1 serrano pepper, finely cut into rounds
1/2 inch gingerroot, finely minced
3 tablespoons cilantro, minced
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in medium non stick skillet. Saute onion until clear. Add the garlic, chili and saute for a few minutes.
  • Add the tuna and stir to break down.
  • Add the curry, cilantro and ginger and heat through.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve hot as a main dish, warm as a salad, or cold as a tuna salad stuffed into pita, or on crackers.
  • I haven't tried it, but I would imagine some mayo or yogurt mixed in would be nice cold.
