Method

  3. In a non-stick pan, heat 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Gently and lightly stir-fry the sliced onion, capsicums and tuna until just cooked. Cool slightly and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Extra Notes

You can use any firm white fish, salmon, prawns or tofu in place of tuna. You may also use curry powder in place of smokey paprika.
