spicy barbecue tuna

Here's what i conjured up for lunch.

Spicy barbecue tuna

Ingredients:

• 2 cups chopped tuna
• 1 big onion diced
• 5 cloves garlic
• 3 tomatoes cut into wedges
• 1/3 cup barbecue sauce
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 3 tbsp dark soya bean sauce
• a few curry leaves(i used dried,fresh would always be better of course)
• 3 tbsp heaped red chili pepper flakes
• 2 tbsp heaped chili powder
• 1 heaped tsp grated ginger
• 1 tsp ajinomoto(MSG)
  
• sunflower oil(enough for sauteing the onions.)
• Salt to taste

How to:

• Heat oil and saute onion in it till semi translucent.
• Add garlic and saute till soft,then add ginger.
• Add chili flakes,chili powder and tomato paste.cook on low heat continuously stirring.add more oil if it tends to get dry.
• Add tuna.Mix in well with the spices.
• Add salt and Ajinomoto(MSG).
• Blend in barbecue sauce and soya sauce.
• Put in the tomato wedges and cook just until tender.Mix well.
• Turn off heat.
• Serve with rice or noodles.

I haven't tried yet,but i guess you can use chicken or beef instead of tuna too.

I served with it a somewhat Japanese style fruit salad.

• 1/2 cup chopped pineapple
• 1/2 cup chopped orange
• 1/2 cup chopped apples
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp juice of a lemon

How to:

• Sprinkle lemon juice over the apples in a bowl,mix to coat well.
• Add all other fruits,and mayonnaise and mix to coat.
• chill until ready to serve.

you should try this sometime.
