Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the onion and carrot thoroughly and slice them into thin strips. Slice the whole garlic cloves thinly.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Once the garlic aroma is released, add the sliced carrots. Reduce the heat to low and stir-fry until the carrots soften and become tender. This slow cooking helps to bring out the natural sweetness of the carrots.
Step 3
Once the carrots are tender, add the sliced onions. Stir-fry over medium heat until the onions become translucent and release their sweet aroma. Cooking the onions well is key to maximizing their sweetness.
Step 4
When the onions are translucent, add a small pinch of salt to season. Your delicious Stir-Fried Onions and Carrots are now complete! They make a great side dish for rice or a convenient addition to lunchboxes.
Step 5
To prepare the Tuna and Onion Stir-Fry, drain the oil from the canned tuna using a sieve. Removing the oil will result in a cleaner and more savory flavor.
Step 6
Slice the onion thinly. Wash the green chili pepper and green onion, then slice them diagonally. The green chili will add a hint of spice, and the green onion will contribute a fresh flavor.
Step 7
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in another frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and stir-fry until they become translucent and soft.
Step 8
As the onions start to turn translucent, reduce the heat to low. Add the drained tuna and stir-fry quickly. Tuna can become dry and crumbly if overcooked, so it’s best to mix it in rapidly with the onions.
Step 9
Finally, add the diagonally sliced green chili peppers and stir-fry briefly. Season with salt to your taste. Your wonderful Tuna and Onion Stir-Fry is ready! Enjoy both of these delightful onion dishes.
