Tuna Rice with Black Eyed Peas
This tuna rice is inspired by Cabo Verde arroz de atum with some Haitian flavors. It only takes 30 minutes to put together which makes it perfect for a weeknight dinner. You will be making it more than once. When it comes to cooking rice in Haitian cuisine, the ratio is slightly different, for perfect grainy rice with a crispy bottom. We use 1:1 ratio, but feel feel to a bit more water if you prefer your rice on the fluffy side. The kind of rice you use matters! I personally like to cook with basmati rice, it is a bit healthier and tastier to me. You're welcome to use white jasmine rice for this recipe. For the tuna, i used Cape Verdean tune, Portugues tuna is a great choice as well. They're my favorite tunas, you can purchase them from Amazon, check out my storefront.
