Try something different with those tins of tuna fish that are lying around, and you will be guaranteed to not regret it. Perfect for students and families alike, this tuna curry is certainly one to add to your cookbook.

Tuna is definitely something you will have lying in your cupboards. I know I always do. This is an incredibly simple curry that doesn’t take much time to make at all. If you’re short on time, but really craving a curry then this is definitely the recipe for you.

I have another fish curry where I use cod fish curry that’s perfect if you’re not a fan of tuna. Both recipes are delicious, and I know you will love both, so be sure to give them each a go!

Not only is this delicious, but it is also quite healthy, delicious and a perfect cheap meal for students. Tuna has so many benefits. It’s nutritious and an excellent source of protein. The best thing about canned tuna is that they last for absolute ages, so you can stock up your pantry and use it whenever you feel like it.
