Drumstick-Tuna Stir fry | Muringakka-Choora Meen Thoran

Tuna stir fry with drumstick is a traditional style thoran or stir fry.It tastes delicious with steamed rice.The recipe is very simple and a healthy one as tuna has many good health benefits on our heart.I had this thoran at a friend's place and liked it.So tried it out at home.You can use any other large fishes too,where the fish can be easily separated of bones.Hope everyone enjoys the taste too!!




Ingredients
Tuna -200g(refer notes)
onion 1/2 medium chopped
pearl onion 4-5
coconut grated 1/3 cup
drumstick 8-10 small pieces
green chillies 4-5
garlic 3 pods sliced
turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
kokum/ kodumpuli 2 pieces
mustard seeds 1/2tsp
curry leaves (I didnot add)

salt


Method
-Heat oil in a pan and splutter mustard seeds.Saute onion and garlic sliced.
-Wash & put the kokum in 1/4 cup water and leave aside for 15 minutes.
-Add the curry leaves and add the tuna after draining the water.(I usually give a rinse too)
-Add in the green chillies and add the spices.
-Slide the coconut grated and drumstick.Add the kokum with water.Cover and cook on low medium heat.
-In between ,uncover the lid and stir to mix .Cover and cook again.it takes about 12 minutes.Dry up the water.
-Serve hot with rice !!


Servings~ 1 bowl
