"This is one of those dishes that my mom's been making since before I was born. To me, it is ultimate comfort food! This recipe is quick and easy, and a nice change from your typical American cuisine."

 

• Ready In: 20mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 3-4

ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream (the low-fat variety simply won't cut it here)
• 1⁄2 green pepper, chopped
• 1⁄2 white onion, chopped
• 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons green curry powder
• 1 (6 ounce) can solid white tuna, drained
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1⁄8 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups rice (Indian basmati rice is wonderful with this dish)
• 1⁄2 cup raisins

directions

1. Heat butter in skillet on medium, and saute onions, green pepper, and garlic until onions are golden.
2. Add sour cream and stir, and then stir in curry powder, tuna, and salt. Let simmer until heated through and slightly bubbling.
3. Prepare rice according to package directions, adding raisins when rice has 5 minutes left to cook. This gives the raisins time to heat through and plump up a bit.
4. Serve immediately, spooning tuna curry over individual portions of rice and raisins, and top with freshly ground black pepper.
5. For something different (we do this occasionally and it is delicious!), substitute couscous for rice, still adding the raisins in when couscous has 5 minutes left to cook.
6. Enjoy!
