6. Tuna Mayo Rice
In Season 2, episode 5 (Midnight Diner), the Master prepared Tuna Mayo Rice (Tuna Mayo Don). Don is short for donburi which literally means “bowl”. It is a rice meal served in small bowls. The rice is topped with a meat like beef, chicken, pork, and in my case fish (tuna). Vegetables could also be used. This is a very simple dish, but very tasty. To me it is basically a tuna salad over the rice and being familiar with tuna salad in our puffs I chose to do it that way for our Caribbean tongues.
Tuna Mayo Rice Recipe
The ingredients are again few; you will need tuna, finely chopped onion, mayonnaise, pimento pepper, black pepper and some pepper sauce (see tuna puff filling)
The ingredients are mixed. Add salt and pepper for taste.
Serve in a small bowl over cooked rice and garnish with chopped chive. Try butter rice with the tuna and you would absolutely love it. I also heard that rice served in such a way are considered comfort food. I certainly agree with that!
