Instructions

  1. Rinse the rice in clear water until the water runs nearly clear, then cook it in 600 ml of salted water for about 15 minutes with the lid on.
  2. While the rice cooks, slice the onions and crush the garlic.
  3. Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onions for 5 minutes until golden, then add the garlic for 1 minute.
  4. Drain the tuna and flake it into the pan, then stir-fry for 3 minutes with the onions.
  5. Add the cooked rice, soy sauce and paprika, then stir vigorously for 3 to 4 minutes to heat everything through.
  6. If you like, crack the eggs into a small pan and fry them sunny-side up, then place them on top of the rice.
  7. Adjust the seasoning and serve hot.
