Simple Tuna Stir Fry


 

I have yet not recovered from the overdose of cheesecakes of the Blogging Marathon. 😉 At times, too much sweet can also cause you lethargy and laziness. Even though I am still the “BST”, I am trying to reduce my sugar intake gradually, taking into account my constant weight gain over the past few years. I don’t know if I need to “thank” blogging for that, but to an extend, I must say “yes”. Even though I make very small quantities of dessert, it somehow ends up majorly into my system and considering that I have a super cooperative metabolism system helps in adding up the flab all over. You will still keep seeing a lot of posts, since they are all from my drafts. I am on a mission to go on slow as far as my cooking escapades are concerned till I shed off a little extra of what I am owning right now. Wish me luck… 🙂

 

Meanwhile, leaving you with this super simple tuna stir fry which becomes my meal on lazy days. The kids are not fond of tuna cans but HD likes them, so I made them at least once a month when I feel awfully lazy, and also when B is not around to have dinner, since he wouldn’t eat this at all. It gets ready in no time and goes equally well with chapathis, pita or bread, the last two options making it even more lazier! 😉 Off to this simple recipe, the way I make it…

      Thank you so much Angie…

  2. I resort to tuna tin to get my fish fix because you know F is so averse to it. He wouldn’t even touch ragee’s white fish bowl. There is no dearth of possibilities that a tin of tuna can bring to the table. Your recipe is so close to everyday Kerala home food and it will definitely go with rice too.
