Flavorful one-pot tuna pilau, perfect as a standalone dish or for an Indian feast.

Ingredients:

20.00 ml olive sunflower oil
1 onion, chopped
28.00 gm mild curry paste (such as korma)
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 red capsicum, finely chopped
10-12 fresh curry leaves*
300g basmati rice
750ml vegetable stock
21.00 gm lemon juice
425g can tuna in chilli oil, drained
60g snow peas, thinly sliced
Mango chutney, to serve (optional)
Indian pickle, to serve (optional)

Instructions:

Warm the oil in a spacious frying pan over gentle heat.
Saute onion and garlic until softened, around 2-3 minutes. Stir in curry paste and turmeric, cook until aromatic. Mix in capsicum, curry leaves, and basmati rice. Pour in stock and lemon juice, then simmer until flavors meld.
Cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes, allowing the liquid to be fully absorbed. Gently mix in the tuna and snow peas until well combined.
Garnish tuna pilau with chutney and pickles for added flavor and variety, if preferred.
