Tuna Fish and Sweet Potato

Tried out a complete different combo on lunch

Tuna Fish And Sweet Potato.png

Our lunch usually consists of rice and roti, daal, several curries, salad, Papad, pickle and sometimes sweet khir...I mean the list goes on - possibly we are the people who spend a lot on food. It does not feel complete, if there are at least four to five side items on the table along with rice / roti / daal. And its not just occasional, its an every day affair, so thanks to her, who takes care to make sure, every one's choice is fulfilled, which of course takes considerable amount of time and energy. Recently, the kid is at home, preparing for his JEE Mains, and he does not want to eat our regular menu, because it makes him sleepy, so he suggested we try something like an American Menu 😀 - some meat or fish and salads or just a side item. So this idea evolved from there and he asked me to bring Salmon fish and sweet potato, but unfortunately I didn't get Salmon fish, as the only Falcon Chilika Fresh outlet near us has been closed now. They do have an online order, but unless ordered very early morning, it is delivered late. So I decided to explore the local market and the best that I got is the Tuna Fish.

And here are the ingredients used for Tawa Fry fish - the kid has learned a lot about cooking as he has interest, I am zero on that area.

Garlic Ginger paste and those powders were all that was used along with mustard oil.

And then fresh sweet potato is available during Winter and we are a big fan of it.

They were boiled first.

And then a little smoky affair added to them. Usually, sweet potato is best cooked at slow heat in Chullah, the traditional way, but that option is only available in my native. Oven is another alternative, but the kids wanted the lunch fast, so this route was taken.

Ready to be served, they surely looked delicious.

The red ones did not taste very good, but we still managed.

A complimentary salad was necessary, as we are habituated to many items on the table, was feeling empty - it takes time to change habit.

So, this was our American style lunch, and even though, me and my son were satisfied, the lady did not like the taste of this fish - it kind of tasted more fishy....that smell, probably you can understand. She is happier with our traditional dish, even though, that takes more time and energy.

For me it's a WIN-WIN both the side :)

!INDEED !PIZZANamaste 🙏 @sanjeevm Sir, Good evening. I love to have fish but first time i saw sweet potato and fish combination , i will also try it. Hope sir you have enjoyed it.

We thoroughly enjoyed, you must try once.

Thats a nice healthy meal. I have rice and fish, but not try with sweet potato. Sometimes i have it with spaghetti. I like to try it !

I like to try it !

Must try, it was the kid's idea and it went pretty well.

It must be very delicious if the traditional food menu has many types like that, sir, especially up to eight types of rice, bread, daal, curry, salad, papad, pickles and you also mentioned sweet khir

Very different from the list of American-style food menus that you showed which only consisted of fried fish and grilled sweet potatoes, and it turns out that women don't like this menu because the fish smells fishy 😁

In my area, we usually make a lunch menu consisting of rice, vegetable side dishes and fried fish only and sometimes there are desserts such as pudding or agar agar, very different from where you are, I am very happy to read your post, I can find out new things in India and become an insight for me
Regards 🙏

We also have that typical menu, but this is good once in a while.

I prefer salmon over tuna as taste but tuna is excellent too... Your meal looked like similar to Italian one too, that tuna looks so tasty!

I see you have red potatoes, I seen them on supermarket rarely, are they any good? We only got round yellow ones usually

Ya, I did not get Salmon. These are red sweet potato ( also a white version is there, but same shape), I think, round red potato is different.

I eat vegetarian food but sweet potatoes I like a lot.
You must have enjoyed the food combination. Enjoy delicious food

Wow.. Unique lunch combination, I saw the combination of sweet potato and fish for the first time, and I think this is something new to try, of course it seems to be very delicious my friend.

Yes, it was a nice combo.

Omg everything looks so yummy both fish and potatoes ❤️

Sweet potatoes and fish combination is a new thing for me. Fish looks delicious!

Bone less fish, that is why we went for Tuna fish, Salmon would be better.

Wow sir looks like you enjoyed eating this meal, well I am veg I can't eat all this things 🫠🙂

My friend, t.his lunch will really make a lot of sense

As I was seeing this picture, I am already salivating because I am so sure that it will definitely taste so great most especially when you are the one that prepare it. I feel like having a taste

This looks really good. I can tell that it will taste well too. I have a friend who hypes Tuna fish a lot
Maybe I should give it a try someday

Wow
Good evening, my friend
Your food looks delicious. I have only tasted Tuna fish once in my life and it was delicious

I love fish dishes. Of course, sometimes the smell is disturbing. If the fish is well cooked and there is a salad with it, it is very delicious. I don't eat rice pilaf much, I prefer bulgur pilaf instead.

Indian food is varied and spicy. Tuna fish comes from the sea and is very tasty. The fish is first fried before cooking. I like it too. I have never cooked fish with sweet potatoes. Desi potatoes are very tasty. But fish can have a different taste with sweet potatoes. I learned something new. Garlic and ginger enhance the taste of food. Many more spices have been used. After cooking, I feel like I'm eating a little too. Very good cooking skills. A beautiful recipe. I think tuna fish would be much tastier than salmon fish.

You really know delicious and nutritious food. Fried fish and roasted potatoes, I really like that

In winter here in our city in our country people eat fish daily and as we all know it is very good for our health and also gives us many benefits so we must eat it in winter.

My, those seasonings made the fish looks really flavorful. I bet it's good smell's spreading in the whole place. The sweet potato looks good, and now i'm craving for it. Its sad that it is pricier now compare before in our place ಥ‿ಥ

The truth is that I had not imagined that combination of flavors between Tuna and Sweet Potato, plus the way the Tuna is made looks delicious
