Steamed Tuna

By: FORBESCJ 
"'Steamed' in Bahamian food isn't done with water. Instead it is when food is seasoned with onion, green pepper, and either tomato paste or ketchup. This is a great Bahamian recipe using canned tuna. Great with white rice."

It tasted pretty much like tuna & ketchup. Not worth the ingredients in my opinion.
