2. Prepare the Potatoes: Dice the potato into small cubes and fry them in oil until they are half-cooked. Once done, set them aside.

3. Sauté the Aromatics: Finely chop the garlic and onion. Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a pan and sauté the garlic and onion until fragrant.

4. Add the Tuna: Incorporate the curry tuna into the pan, cooking until most of the moisture evaporates. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding a little salt if needed.

5. Assemble the Puffs: Place a spoonful of the tuna mixture onto the center of each puff pastry square. Fold the pastry over to create a triangle shape and seal the edges by pressing down with a fork, ensuring they stick together.

6. Egg Wash: Brush the top of each pastry with the egg yolk for a beautiful golden finish.

7. Bake: Preheat your oven and bake the curry tuna puffs until they turn golden brown and are firm to the touch.

8. Serve and Enjoy: Once baked to perfection, remove them from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the rich flavors of your homemade Curry Tuna Puff!

Cooking Tips

• For an extra twist, you can add diced vegetables such as bell peppers or peas to the tuna mixture for added texture and flavor.
