Preparation
Step 1
Fry the onions with the whole jeeru until light brown. Add the garlic, salt, green chillies and remaining spices.
Step 2
Braise, then add the tomatoes. Braise a little longer, then add the drained tins of tuna. Cook for a few minutes to allow the tuna to absorb the flavour of the spices. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and green dhana.
Step 3
Boil the rice until 3/4 done. Add a few whole jeeru before draining the rice.
Step 4
Layer rice, tuna and fried potatoes in a pot (starting and finishing with rice). Sprinkle a little water over. Steam for about half an hour. Sprinkle crushed fried onions over before serving.
This tastes nice served with papar (poppadoms), and a yogurt chutney if desired.
