instructions
    1

    Start by chopping the onion, bell pepper, and carrot into bite-sized pieces and mincing the garlic.

    2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent.

    3

    Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1 minute until fragrant.

    4

    Stir in the chopped carrots and bell pepper, and cook for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

    5

    Add 2 tablespoons of curry powder, stirring well to coat the vegetables. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to release the flavor.

    6

    Next, pour in the 1 can of coconut milk and 1 cup of vegetable broth. Stir until fully combined.

    7

    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then add the 2 cans of tuna (drained). Stir gently to keep the tuna chunks intact.

    8

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

    9

    Serve hot with rice or bread of your choice, garnishing with fresh cilantro if desired.
