Spicy Tuna & Onions

Since I started an internship and the other weekdays are filled with classes/ research for assignments, I have been feeling super-lazy to cook anything "proper" after coming home from a long day out. Sometimes its either slopping some spread & ham between a bread of some sort (or the latest "craze" - an english muffin), those one-person caesar/greek salads from Woolies or frying up two sausages or fish chips. But there are days when I feel like something spicy with rice. And this is where I end up... (since defrosting "real" meats takes too darn long)...

Spicy Tuna & Onions
Ingredients:
1 can Tuna Chunks in Olive Oil
1 onion - sliced finely
1 teaspoon chilli powder
1 teaspoon cumin powder (
chinna chiraham)
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
Salt to season

Method:
1. Heat some oil in frying pan and fry onions till translucent and soft.
2. Add in chilli, turmeric and cumin powder. Mix well with onions and cook it for a minute or two till aromatic. Lower the heat slightly so it doesn't burn.
3. Add in tuna. Mix well. Break down chunks into smaller pieces. Season
4. Fry it up a bit until you get some crispy bits.
5. Serve with rice.
