I used to buy flavoured tuna, but a third of the tin is water that you lose. Plus there aren't that many flavours.
Now I only buy the tuna in spring water and flavour it myself. I'll use any of the following and even combine some.
- Hot sauce.
- Soy sauce.
- Chilli and garlic paste.
- Garlic salt.
- Moroccan seasoning.
- Fajita/taco seasoning.
- Garam masala.
- Cayenne pepper powder.
Sirena's brand of tuna - the one with italian seasoning in oil does it for me. I'll spice it up with some bacon, asian chilli sauce you get from asian shops (the less english on the label the better), and half a fistful of coriander or whatever herb I can get within arms length. Love it love it.
Here's a quick take on a very famous Lebanese dish called Samak bi Tahini. which literally translates to Fish in Tahini (as in that famous sesame paste you would use when making Humus).
What you need is:
1 large can of tuna
About 4 tablespoon of sesame paste
About 2 tablespoon of lemon juice
2 tablespoon water
1 medium size onion
1 tablespoon oil of choice (being Lebanese it has to be olive oil/light for sautéing onion).
salt and pepper to taste
Combine the tahini paste with the lemon juice, salt and pepper to make a slurry.
Sauté the onion,...add the can of tuna (preferably the oil canned/oil drained),..add the tahini "sauce" to the mix and let simmer for few minutes until the tahini flavour permeates through the tuna.
Another twist, is Samke Bi Kizabrah, translated to mean: fish in cilantro/Chinese parsley. This involves frying smashed up garlic and chopped Chinese parsley, before adding the above tahini sauce. Yum is all I would say.
